Touch my mind - speak to my eyes Among the blind - who never see lies For life's but an illusion That's not more if we take less Flesh calls out for flesh And solitude can't kill loneliness As the veil of the night closes in It hides every sorrow and sin And never asks why In darkness we lie Let me feel - all but reality Believe it's real - for a moment's serenity As the veil of the night closes in It hides every sorrow and sin And never asks why In darkness we lie Bath this world in darkness That our eyes may adjust to dreams For in the morning's unforgiving light Nothing's ever what it seems The taste of rotten flesh still lingers in my mouth I've tried to wash it down with lies 'cause I can't spit it out!!! As the veil of the night closes in It hides every sorrow and sin And surely knows why In darkness we lie. We lie in darkness Where light can't reach the truth Discern what we want And need no other proof Doubtful spirits Hide within the night For the dark judges no one Yet deep inside you know what is right
