Songs of Burning - What’s In The Dark?

Are you afraid of the dark?

Are you afraid of what’s in the dark?

The monsters will leave their mark

The workers will leave their mark

The servants will leave their blood-soaked mark

———

Does your God look away as people die?

Does your God look away as children cry?

Does your God look away as a mother leaves her child?

Does your God look away when spirits die?

———

Know the piercing stab of hunger haunts

Know the gruelling grind of toil taunts

Know the gods hurt with us and they feel all that we feel

Know the aching rage of hope still wants

———

Are you afraid of the dark?

Are you afraid of what’s in the dark?

The monsters will leave their mark

The workers will leave their mark

The servants will leave their blood-soaked mark

———

Does our desperate struggle make you fear?

Does our desperate striving make you sneer?

Does our love and our fear make you feel so mighty tall?

Does the terror we feel make you feel fear?

———

You think you should rule this world so wide

You think that the deep dark will subside

You think we should be grateful that you let us exist

You think all of us you can divide

———

Are you afraid of the dark?

Are you afraid of what’s in the dark?

The monsters will leave their mark.

The workers will leave their mark.

The servants will leave their blood-soaked mark.

———

When we live, when we love, when we hurt, when we bleed

It just makes your downfall guaranteed

Every time that you take our hands and our tongues

It just puts more ash inside your lungs

When we die we just rise and we gain more power

We are dark and dread, you should cower

If you turn up your nose and you make your door close

As you sleep we’ll seep through the shadows

———

Are you afraid of the dark?

Are you afraid of what’s in the dark?

The monsters will leave their mark

The workers will leave their mark

The servants will leave their blood-soaked mark
