lyrics

The night is with me, even at the brightest hour
Its presence is not confined to these steps I have left behind

I'm not guided by the light
In darkness I feel the most alive
Embracing the mysteries of the night
Staring the blazing sky I thrive

In the stillness of night I began to see
The impermanence of all forms
All the storms and the moon guided me through

Lost myself under the stellar light
Lapsed into nocturnal bliss
The bed of night in void of nightmares
An opening into serenity

You have the power, the power to move the oceans
You are the lighthouse for the ones lost in the dark
In solitude she circles, alone in the crowd
Desolate and distant, shackeld to the earth

No light can pass through this opaque soul
Submerged into the stream of heartfelt gloom

In an endless silence even screams sound silent
Even the shapes of the trees are reaching towards you
I adore your deceitfulness, your calming beauty

You have the power, the power to move the oceans
You are the lighthouse for the ones lost in the dark
In solitude she circles, alone in the crowd
Desolate and distant, shackled to the earth

Without darkness the stars wouldn't shine so bright
It's a shelter. It's a haven. My true colour.

No light can pass through this opaque soul
Submerged into the stream of heartfelt gloom
