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 death
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 deathbeds 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
