Song of a dark night

Song of a dark night

Oh why, oh why
Do people smile
Do they do that once in a while?

Why that look upon that happy face
When all in the heart have fallen from grace

To see a smile when you see someone
But the heart, the black heart full of deceit and hate
To give a flower
Instead of your heart felt hate

I sing for joy and peace in the world
But do they listen?
Do they ever hear?
My song is like a train deep in the night
When it comes a'callin
No one hears it calling
They are drinking in the tavern
They are sleeping in their beds
They are bidding behind their doors
To see who gets the most heads
No one hears it coming
But it brings smoking fire a'burning

The chime is ringing
Time of dawn is almost near
Will the smiles of the fake wake up
And realize who they truly are
And awaken that sleeping person within you
And find out your true being
Chain that beast of suffering and put it away
Walk down heavens way
