With the black night, all the shadows will become one.
With the black night, the worm slips silently from the ground.
In the safety of your domain
there is silence, there is pain.
With the black night, you deepest secrets will come out.
With the black night, spirits meet with the least resistance.
Do no confuse invisibility with non-existence.
For even as you speak to your god,
from the corner of your eye a creature odd
chants mea culpa, a mea culpa benedictus.
With the black night, infinity is a feeling.
With the black night, old battle scars are healing.
And remembrances of shame
are as distant as your name.
With the black night, clocks stop on a landscape unrevealing.
With the black night, you deepest secrets will come out.
