Hello Darkness My Old Friend
Hello darkness my old friend
Nice to meet you once again
I didn’t mean you any harm
Why the cause for this alarm
Darkness led me to a place
I couldn’t even see her face
It was cold and empty space
Filled with torment and disgrace
She led me down some corridors
And I found myself on the moors
She whispered silently in my ear
Suddenly I was gripped with fear
I began to choke and revoke
My eyes were streaming from the smoke
I began to slumber and felt quite frail
Then I realised, this must be hell
I felt a jolt and like a bolt
Thrust back in time for my revolt
Suddenly from in my bed
Was I dreaming was I dead
The darkness fell once more
Engulfing me that’s for sure
I felt a cloak of tightness fall
I tried to grab I felt so small
This time travelling really fast
I saw the echoes of my past
We flew by some obscure things
Is this what my darkness brings?
With a flash of dazzling light
The darkness blew out of site
A glimmer of hope from a rod
Then I knew, that this was God
