See, the darkness is coming.
Now I can see nothing at all.
No, it's not really funny,
But the darkness is coming to consume our souls.
See, the darkness is coming,
It's getting much closer to us.
Yet we still keep on running
From our glorious future to the lousy past.

Baby, we're runners.
We run from our lives,
We run from the darkness
That fills our minds.
Baby, we're runners,
We never look back;
We run from the darkness,
We run from the wreck.

See, the darkness is coming...
We've lost our will to survive...
Only death is undying,
Only death can diminish our painful delight.
See, the darkness is coming.
It's coming for us through the mist.
Now we must keep on trying
To light up our lanterns, burn away all the fears.
