I've been sleepin' Sounder than I've ever slept before I keep smilin' And dancin' like a fool around the floor I've been draggin' each beast from under my bed And I laugh them to d**h Then lay down my head Cause I don't fear the darkness anymore Someday when you come bringin' down the sky The whole earth will be exposed before your light And there will never again be darkness When your will is done I don't fear old men On their d**hbeds waiting For the end to take them Cause their short arms and shorter breaths Are not equiped to back their threats So I ignore them In the same way I don't fear the darkness anymore Someday when you come bringin' down the sky The whole earth will be exposed before your light And there will never again be darkness When your will is done Lord if you already stand outside of time And keep the corners of the universe aligned Then I have nothing to fear Cause you're already here Your kingdom's come Dawn breaks the darkness But you won't find that peace Light chases night away But you'll never see it flee The darkness has no substance The darkness has no substance The darkness has no substance of it's own Oh, the true light has shown And we're already home
