Lyric Blackness of the Night

In the blackness of the night
I seem to wander endlessly
with a hope burning out deep inside
I m a fugitive, community has driven me out
For this bad, bad world I m beginning to doubt
I m alone and there is no one by my side

In the blackness of the night
I see a shadow passing by
from the heels of an old soldier boy.
There s no comprimising
and his eyes are black as the sky
For this bad, bad world he is going to die.
He s alone and there is no one by his side

In the blackness of the night
I see a sparkle of a star
from the sweet silver tear of a child
and she s clutching at a photograph of long, long ago
When her parents were happy she was too young to know
she s alone and there is no one by her side

I m alone and there is no one by my side

In the blackness of the night
I seem to wander endlessly
with a hope burning out deep inside
I m a fugitive, community has driven me out
For this bad, bad world I m beginning to doubt
I m alone, and there is no one by my side
