I came here with darkness You carried the rain Here's a place for a friend To be a tower of strength for a pain The power to let it all go Demands the power to let it all show Once came down with darkness To choke down the pain It forever to be drifting in the rain
Now stay for my darkness Stay for the rain Stay for the friend As a tower of strength in the pain You see the power to let it all go Demands the power to let it all show Once came down with darkness To choke down the pain It forever to be drowning in the rain
Show me the nights of wonder The nameless edges of the shores We hoped to sleep on Those we'll never see Tell me of the empathy We felt there once When loading our guns Leaving the ones behind Those we'll never see I darkened your sun We will be gone
Won't you stay for my darkness If I bear your rain Here's still a place for a friend To be a tower of strength in a pain But the power to let it all go Is the power to let it all show To see death's a remedy That brings here the darkness And noble words for me To set us free
