Neil Leyton & the Ghosts - Darkness Falls Lyrics

Darkness falls when you least expect it
You think otherwise son, you better forget it
You ain't gonna feel any happier here this winter

Darkness comes settles into you
Revealing all the years of abuse
As friends drift apart, to different moons

Darkness comes down and it envelops you
Don't fight, don't struggle, now it is no use
Your existential fears and the lies you lived for years
You look in the mirror and don't recognize your face

Candles fail to reveal the light within
O, your lack of imagination keeps you blind again
You ain't gonna change your life, there is no time, oh no
As darkness comes and it eats you up inside

Don't fight, don't struggle, now it is over and done
And your Conscience Pilate mind it weighs a ton (yes, it does)
It's a malady of this world, the betrayals of all our souls
Now you're staring in the mirror and it's your time
Your time to go
Time to go
