Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep

Darkness, darkness, hide my yearning
For the things that cannot be
Keep my mind from constant turning
Toward the things that cannot see, no, no

Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome
Is the day that brings my happiness
I have found the edge of silence
Oh, I am in depths of fear

Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with the endless night
Take away, take away the pain of your way
Fill the emptiness with light, na na na na na

Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep

Darkness, darkness, hide my yearning
For the things that cannot be
Keep my mind, keep my mind from constant turning
Toward the things that cannot see, no, no, oh
