Crown of Darkness

The dark wings of the angel 
Beat into the night 
Into the night. 
Her children hold the stars 
They carry the fire 
And they follow behind. 

Lighting up the sky 
With an endless army of light in the clouds 
And she covers all the Earth 
With the promise of tonight. 

Beyond the darkness 
The haven of angels 
Comfort of sleep 
Beyond the darkness 
She watches 
Guardian of me. 

Chased by the light of day 
She flees, toward hidden dreams 
She whispers to the child 
Her crown of darkness 
Soothes his fear
