Into the darkness of the mind…playing tricks we can’t control

Into the darkness of the soul…despair without escape

Into the darkness of the night…careful footsteps to keep from falling

Darkness…is it just night time blackness?
Or can it appear in the middle of day?

Darkness…is it just the absence of light?
Or can it just be the absence of hope?

Darkness…is it just the presence of evil?
Or can it just be the absence of good?

Walk into the darkness, as a pinpoint of light
Walk into the darkness, as a heart full of joy
Walk into the darkness, as a strong hand to hold

Walk into the darkness…as a soul unafraid…

…And light the Candle of Joy
