lyrics

He Who Plays With Night
November 27, 1991

I come from the moors
smelling of the sand
I am a child of night
carrying nothing
I return from the darker path to redemption
as one chosen to live in entropic blackness
I chose my path
as that of one who fed death
with a part of his soul
I come to you
that you might know I am to protect you
I come as the blackness of early morning rises
friend -
changed and changing
waiting for the shadows to try and take you

I come only with a mind of steel
a body of quicksilver
as protector,
a destroying angel if you will -
so know
you can't kill me
I'm indestructible
incapable of fear
for hope or folly as this may be
I come to help -
wait for my call
out of the kindest hour
waiting for the shadow to spring
like maggots from the light
and ware -
they will crumple as paper in the storm
before these empty hands
