Classy lyrics from a classy lady

[BenMech]

I have carried this burden
From here to there and back again
The weight on my soul unseen but always felt

Now I pass along this burden
For you to hide away
Keep it hidden, keep it safe

From the darkness that draws near
From shadows, from the fear

Once it takes hold of you
Never will it let you go

Cold be heart and hand and bone
Cold be travelers far from home
The rhyme of a soul whose endless need
has drawn us here, drawn us near

They do not see what lies ahead
When sun has failed and moon is dead
One stage ending, one begins

Through the darkness we draw near
Through the shadows we all fear
In the darkness one sees clear
In the darkness, drawing near

Speed and secrecy now
All things on these depend
I know your face
I see you

Don't you leave me here alone
Don't go where I can't follow
We have not come this far to
Leave it all behind

Blood has spilled upon this night
And we see the red sun rise
Beacon's fire, deadly light

And the darkness now is here
In the shadows we all fear
In the darkness one sees clear
In the darkness we all fear
From the darkness

Hehehe, Cool Ben Thanks!

Just to clarify, the lyrics didn't take almost 6 years to write. The track is up on my MySpace page if anyone would like to hear it...

Nice lyrics Colleen. Me likey. Especially this line, "The rhyme of a soul whose endless need
has drawn us here, drawn us near". I just listened to it on your myspace... great stuff indeed.
