Put Out the Dark

embrace me now


Put out the dark and embrace me now.

This moment flees with every breath.

When one is whole, the other breaks

From crushing that which will not bow,

And in his breath it shakes.

They reach the bend along the road.

So help them god,

So help them god and so they hope

That mercy may encourage those

That fail to not do what is told.

And what is told will never end

From sight it will not fade.

Those cruel memories they stay

The good ones no one trades.
