Accustomed to the Dark

We grow accustomed to the Dark
When Light is always
Put away - our eyes behold the grey
A moment - We uncertain step
For newness, fearful
Night has come - our vision to the Dark
A vision clear through time

The Darkness alters
Or something in the sight
Adjusts itself to the midst of night
When mourning falters
I'll never learn to see
It shall tear my soul down by the end of night

But when the shadow pulls us back in
We are always
Way behind - decelerated mind
And so of larger Darknesses
Those evenings hold us
Down in chains - no moon will show a sign
... Or star - come out – within

The Darkness alters
Or something in the sight
Adjusts itself to the midst of night
When mourning falters
I'll never learn to see
It shall tear my soul down by the end of night

Witness her eternity
Accustomed to the Dark
Meet the road, crawl till you bleed
Accustomed to the Dark

When the neighbor holds the lamp
To witness her goodbye
We meet the road,
We keep on walking
... though sometimes we fall down

The bravest grope a little, sometimes
They are blinded
Wounded souls - their vision still unfolds
They get grip slowly, embrace night
And then they finally
Walk on straight, though scars they take with them
Those scars they bravely wear

The Darkness alters
Or something in the sight
Adjusts itself to the midst of night
When mourning falters
I'll never learn to see
It shall tear my soul down by the end of night

Witness her eternity
Accustomed to the Dark
Meet the road, crawl till you bleed
Accustomed to the Dark
