Out of the Darkness

I saw you in my mind when I was younger

And I grew older, and I saw you still

You'd stay close to me sometimes behind my shoulder

When I was weary, trouble would come

In my last defense you tried to warn me

I did not know you, you were a demon to me

Your presence, it was a fear that lived inside me

It grew around me, then you would appear

Deep below the earth I might have found you

High above the tower I could not see

Deep below the earth I might have found you

High above the tower I could not see

I was dead and I was dying at your doorway

I did not see you, you did not appear

And between the years, I might have come to know you

But I don't own you, that much is clear

Deep below the earth I might have found you

High above the tower I could not see

Deep below the earth I might have found you

High above the tower I could not see

I was afraid someday you'd return

Unchanged at my door as you'd once been before

The flutter of fortune or a bringer of gloom

Out of the darkness and into my room

I was afraid someday you'd return

Unchanged at my door as you'd once been before

The flutter of fortune or a bringer of gloom

Out of the darkness
