WHISPERS IN THE DARK

1 Verse
When the clock strikes midnight
And the last of the light is gone
You close your eyes
You reach inside the confines
Of your heart

You hear…
Whispers in the dark
Echoes of a broken heart
Whispers in the dark
The silent sounds tearing you apart

2 Verse
Destination no tomorrow
Written in your hand
The page that turned from hope to sorrow
It’s more than they’ll ever understand but
You hear…

Whispers in the dark
Echoes of a broken heart
Whispers in the dark
The silent sounds tearing you apart
These things you hear
The thoughts you fear

3 Verse / Chorus
Stay away from open gateways to the underworld
Many travelers suffered here
Their echoes cry through walls that sigh

4 Verse / Chorus
Fallen angels cry to heaven
The tears of men
Lost and forsaken
Those of us who will be taken
See this world no more
