In The Dark by Fraser Drummond

In The Dark by Fraser Drummond

In the dark, in the night
I feel I have some kind of sight
I can see, things never meant to be
In the dark of the night

Every nameless fear that wallows
In every sunken hollow
Of every tear stained cheek
On every rain soaked street

A captured heart, vanquished in the dark
Trapped, like amber in a dream
Wrapped, in sheets, a silken shroud you weave
As this earthly realm you leave

Your every nameless fear
Every awkward sound you hear
Footsteps on an empty stair
By the open door to the demons lair

Come with me, vistas vast and free
Uncurl, behind your eye
Skies, unfurl, as far as you can see
We want you to be free

Another dawn breaks like a heart
Pumping blood as it tears apart
I only wish that we could see
The child inside who’s wishing he could be.
