the sun set down behind the trees
how quickly did my skin
sense the chill upon the breeze
and i'm uneasy; the night surrounds me as

dusk ushers out the light of day
a symbol to be sure that my life can't forever stay

there's a day when there will be no night
there's a day when there will be no night
don't you know the lamb will be our light

vassal, star and noble moon
your King comes riding soon
and as i mourn this loss of mine
i'll leave it up for you to shine

darkness makes the baby cry
so the father sings
a lullaby to drive the tears away.
