The Darkest Night by Alert312 Lyrics
[Verse 1: Boogalu]
I get visions of
Dark nights
Like Black holes
No light
Like phone call
My sister on
This ’06
Still the memory’s raw
Screams
Coming from the horn
Like a freak alarm
I heard my Mom’s sobs
And my sister describe
Kidnaped, Beat, Raped
Almost gone
I could barely breathe
Rage invaded my bones
No sun, Thus begun
The darkest night of my soul
What do I say when the devil comes?
Is God gone?
Does he retreat when evil's born?
Is He’s a con?
Did my belief
Just leave my soul
Nights alone?
I could feel the prince of lies advise telling me fold
Let bitterness go AWOL
Avenge your folks
Evil multiplying it’s hold
The light of Christ Seemed gone
In the eye of the storm
I need a light house
This dark night so cold and I…
[Verse 2: Boogalu]
Here and now
Standing
Looking at this casket
Friend eaten away by this cancer
Died before her parents
Now how’s that right?
I’m a father now
I couldn’t imagine that plight
Just Standing before my sons
Laying them to rest
I best not stress
And think on that
But better yet I might perhaps
Need to think on that
Cause death
Fears no man
And respects no contract
Abstract, but we all got to wrestle with that
This corpse is a great debater
What argument is greater?
Like why does death laugh
Staring back my aging
Invoking real questions
Like who are you to fake this?
And dodge that its sting is as real
As time’s pages?
Where’s God
When sin pays wages?
Sickle in his arms
The reaper’s ink staining
Reaping what we sow
So this whole life is vain
No answer to put life in our veins
Dust remains
If God can create
Why does this life go grain?
Answer me that
As look I over the casket
Death writing paychecks
Written with the ashes
[Chorus: Boogalu]
I Can’t find the words to say right now
But I know
But I know that this feeling’s real right now
Right now
This the darkest night that I’ve ever seen
My soul overwhelmed
With suffering
I get visions of
Dark nights
Like Black holes
No light
Like phone call
My sister on
This ’06
Still the memory’s raw
Screams
Coming from the horn
Like a freak alarm
I heard my Mom’s sobs
And my sister describe
Kidnaped, Beat, Raped
Almost gone
I could barely breathe
Rage invaded my bones
No sun, Thus begun
The darkest night of my soul
What do I say when the devil comes?
Is God gone?
Does he retreat when evil's born?
Is He’s a con?
Did my belief
Just leave my soul
Nights alone?
I could feel the prince of lies advise telling me fold
Let bitterness go AWOL
Avenge your folks
Evil multiplying it’s hold
The light of Christ Seemed gone
In the eye of the storm
I need a light house
This dark night so cold and I…
