Today the birds haven't offered a sound Seems like the world has stopped going round The sun peared through then faded away And the children stopped with their children's play
The stars all fell down from the heavens above And the darkening moon it reminded me of How the darkness is merely an absense of light Surrounding me with the grace of night
Mercy of darkness Mercy of darkness Mercy of darkness Touching me Touching me
Imagining places that I've never seen The morning of life and the end of all dreams And the darkness it still held no evil or fear Yes the darkness it still held no evil or fear
And all I could hear were mysterious sounds But so bright and so pure and heavenly sounds And nothing had started and nothing had ended And nothing was broken and nothing was mended
Mercy of darkness Mercy of darkness Mercy of darkness Touching me Touching me
Mercy of darkness Mercy of darkness Mercy of darkness Touching me Touching me
