Underneath the blackest soil I lay down my worn fainting heart And deep beneath the frozen ground I buried down my deepest thoughts Because the road I've chosen Is free of fortune and desire No demand they toil and worry Because the thrill I've taken Leads down into the darkest shores Where the stars have passed away Tonight the world is burning Black smoke hides the skies Tonight dark clouds rising up Swarming shadows on the floor Shadows that don't belong They don't belong By the side of forsaken man I leave behind my own shadow Into the deep Under these shores I drown my broken memories Because the road I've chosen Is free of fortune and desire No demand they toil and worry And now the thrill I've taken Leads down into the darkest shores Where the stars have passed away Because tonight the world is burning Black smoke hides the skies Tonight dark clouds rising up Swarming shadows in darkness Shadows in darkness Shadows in darkness For something to change Something has to give For something to grow Something has to yield Because tonight the world is burning Black smoke hides the skies Tonight dark clouds rising up Swarming shadows in darkness Shadows in darkness
