Fear of Darkness/Fear of Night
--or--
The last thing that my true love said to me...
You make me hide myself in the light of day.
Shrouding myself in the sunlight to make you stay away.
The light gives me comfort from the things you say.
I don't want you here today
I don't want you here today

I fear for my life from what you may do.
To know that 'till now I didn't believe in you.
The last thing I wanted was for you to be true.
Because I fear for what you might do
I fear for what you might do

You tempt me with words of seduction,
I hear screams behind your voice.
You live on the edge of destruction,
And I have no choice.
I don't want to hear your voice
I don't want to hear your voice

The life I lead is one of light.
The things you do cannot be right.
The night can only blind my sight.
I don't want to live in the night
I don't want to live without light...

Where Am I?

"If you are here
Then where am I?"
So I ask the stars,
The moon and the sky.
They look at me
And wink their eye,
But to me do not reply.

I go to the trees
And ask the same,
The sky the interrupts
With thunder and rain.
The soothing sound
That relieves all pain,
But their answer remains the same.

So I turned
And asked the sun.
"Tell me,
Am I the only one?"
The sun drips down,
The day is done.
"No, you're just the lonely one."

Imagination: The Unknown Land

I have wandered into
An unknown land,
Unknown to beast
And unknown to man.

Timeless dreams
And endless notions
Affairs, romances
And love potions...

Witchcraft and wizardry,
Halocoust and misery,
All exist in this unknown land.

Happiness and glad times,
Characters and laughlines,
Unknown to beast
And Unknown to man.

This is the land
Of visions and delusions,
Silverbells, cocktails
And dream-shattering conclusions.

This is the land
Where time stands still:
No one ever leaves,
No one ever will.
