Would you allow me to lie
If it could protect you?
Should I reveal it to the light?
Could you bear such a view?

Oh! Sweet darkness where I sleep
When will you advise me?
Oh! Abyss where I’m so deep
Where’s the light I should see?

I’ve been silent all my life
My heart is so hollow
Concealing is so rife
Though it soothes my sorrow

Oh! Sweet lies I told myself
Why are you a burden?
Oh! Memories on a bookshelf
Is my heart now broken?

There’s a mess inside my head
Monsters under the bed
Long path that I’ve taken
Tell me I’m mistaken

Oh! Strong madness where I lie
Will you stay my ally?
Oh! Tell me, blinded sight
Is darkness my sole light?

Would you allow us to lie
If it could protect us?
We don’t anymore need light
Darkness can keep both of us
