Ever since the pain set in
And dusk spilled over everything
I can’t hear you
I can’t hear you

Gone the vows and alms of day
Of all I’ve lost the cruelest thing
Is that I can’t hear you
I can’t hear you
I can't hear you
I can't hear you

Light the darkness, light the darkness

The wounds you kiss, the joints you break
As limb from limb the silence takes
When I don’t hear you
I don’t hear you
I don’t hear you
I don't hear you

Light the darkness, light the darkness

In this night more lovely than the dawn
Your hand finds mine here in the dark
When I’ve no form left to hold you close
Your voice itself becomes my home

Light the darkness, light the darkness
