Dark Rising Lyrics

It’s a dark, cold night
And I am invited
I am sorry and contrite
In the dark, cold night
There’s a fence and an old road
Made of cobblestone,
And if I walk there alone,
I’ll be far away from home
When the dark is rising
It’s a long awakening
Into blackness and in grey
There will be hell to pay

It’s a dark, cold night
And we’re all invited
The fate leaves you contrite
In an endless field of meadow brights
Over the fence, there’s an old road
Made of cobblestone
You must not walk there alone
Or you’ll never find your way back home
When the dark is rising
It’s a long awakening
Into blackness and in grey
There will be hell to pay

It’s a dark, cold night
And I don’t feel like everything is safe and right
And my mortal life
Is dreadful and worn-out
I misbehaved, now I’m banished from hell
But I’m not depraved; I’m just not feeling well
The rough times will go; there must be a better tomorrow
But since a long time ago, I’m already 6 feet below
Forever and a day, I will be in disarray

It’s a dark and silent night
The daylight is out of sight
In the cold of wintertime
This eternal evening is mine
I broke the fence, and took the old road
Made of cobblestone
I am not alone, don’t worry
The demons of my past are walking with me
When the dark is rising
It’s a long awakening
Into blackness and in grey
There will be hell to pay

It’s a dark, cold night
And I don’t feel like everything is safe and right
And my mortal life
Is dreadful and worn-out
I misbehaved, now I’m even banished from hell
But I’m not depraved; I’m just not feeling well
The rough times will go; there must be a better
tomorrow
But since a long time ago, I’m already 6 feet below
Forever and a day, I will be in disarray

And there will be hell to pay
