I am the night I lay my veil A looming shadow Horizon wide The bleak stars shine A cold and eerie light They are born like you Born to die Come your dream Come your nightmare I fall upon you Swallow all that shines The bleak stars shine A cold and eerie light They are born like you Born to die Come your dream Come your nightmare I fall upon you Swallow all that shines I am the night I lay my veil A looming shadow Horizon wide The Sun is rising The Moon is full It's a black Moon rising To a total eclipse When the planets are shifting Your life like a tide When mercury's in retrograde I am your dark side Sunlight - how did you leave me Darkness - I'm the shadow of a total eclipse When the Sun is rising And the Moon is full It's a black Moon rising To a total eclipse When the planets are shifting Your life like a tide When mercury's in retrograde I am your dark side Children Dust of the universe Children In the shadow of the total eclipse
