As the tide ebes and flowsThe darkness shows no remissIt is the way of the moon that makes us goBack and forth , Each evening without the suns kissThe black has its comfort, although it may seem coldIt wraps around us ; just the sameWatching over the young and those not quite yet oldAs it accepts the final breaths from those who have suffered and died without even a nameIn the early evening the song is sungIt is a lullaby that lures in the craftiest of creaturesAs the midnight Bells are rungIt’s hard to make out what’s left of the attendees featuresThere is no description of the contract,That We joined in without thinkingAnd now we know not how to react;And have only remorse and the feeling that our pride is shrinking .Back into the night we wander, no longer unaffected by its essenceHoping only to find the dawn and once again feel its warming presence .
