Dear Darkness lyrics

Dear darkness

Dear darkness

Won't you cover, cover

Me again?

Dear darkness

Dear

I've been your friend

For many years

Won't you do this for me?

Dearest darkness

And cover me from the sun

And the words tightening

The words are tightening

Around my throat

And, and...

Around the throat of the one I love

Tightening, tightening, tightening

Around the throat of the one I love

Tightening, tightening, tightening

Dear darkness

Dear darkness

Now it's your time to look after us

'Cause we kept you clothed

We kept in business

When everyone else was having good luck

So now it's your time

Time to pay

To pay me and the one I love

With the worldly goods you've stashed away

With all the things you

Took from us
