Running In Darkness
Awakened in the early night
By the rumblings of an unknowing life
Surroundings new and fresh
Contained in mortal flesh
But newness makes us fearless
We've no notice of the night
Awareness gained by passing time
Moving forward, pressures from behind
Directions blurred, but straight
Entrapped by mortal fate
We falter ever faster
And go forward into time
(Chorus)
Running in Darkness
Yesterday pushing like a thief with a knife
Running in Darkness
Forever forward in a quickening life
Running in Darkness
Towards morning's final light
(Bridge)
Darkness isn't only
A foe to keep us lonely
Desires on our side
To take us through the fight
And support from the runners
Making their own passage
Through the barriers of the night
(Chorus/Break/Chorus)
Wearied by departing night
And we're hoping that we've done it right
The runnings slow and tough
The times just not enough
But striving keeps us going
Through the struggle of the night
