Elephant - As Darkness Hits lyrics
rate meSleep comes, night falls, the death of another day<br />
No strength to stay awake, the world fades away<br />
And only my dreams can comfort now<br />
Must find the meaning of all this somehow<br />
<br />
Into bed I slowly sink, the promise of it's warmth<br />
A journey yet to undertake in my weary state<br />
And only my dreams can comfort now<br />
Must find the meaning of all this somehow<br />
<br />
On these cold black winter nights, when children play by the graveyard lights<br />
Gypsies ask me what is life and paranoid I quest to find<br />
Far into my dreams I ride beyond the rooms where I used to hide<br />
Six silver gates unto heaven rise, the moon is the only familiar sight<br />
Magnetic fields of auroral light, blue phantasms in nocturnal flight<br />
Aging here is not a threat, above the storm I conquer death<br />
Ascending mountains to the stars, walking the windblown plains of Mars<br />
Barren planets will be revived in the silent universe within the mind<br />
<br />
O how I enjoy the visions my mind manifests<br />
Imagination freely opens when the body rests<br />
<br />
Tomorrow when the sun has set and the stars are lit<br />
Another dream I shall await as darkness hits
