Darkness Song
Asaf Avidan
I've learned to hold the line
And to never look away
I've taught myself the lies
That will get me through the day
And nothing ever lasts
But the pain that circulates
Through the chasms of our past
And the breaths we dare to take
Oh Mama, can't you see?
I've got a darkness shining through me
I've got a darkness shining through me
I've learned to hold the weight
Of this mirror to the sky
But I've taught myself the sense
Of never asking why
Nothing ever lasts
But the blackness that dilates
Through the curtains of our pasts
To the steps we want to take
Oh Mama, can't you see?
I've got a darkness shining through me
I've got a darkness shining through me
Oh Mama, can't you see?
I've got a darkness shining through me
I've got a darkness shining through me
