In the dark
It means it's lights out

In the dark
Shadows roam freely

In the dark
The stars will shine

In the dark
Silence will fall

In the dark
You're alone

In the dark
Light is smothered

But will shine more brightly then ever.


In the dark

This was what came to my mind tonight staring out my window into the dark abyss, and also I'll turn it into my English teacher for some points.
