And a cool, cool rain comes down
   On a world burned by the sun
   And the moon arises like a child
   And the moment is undone
   And the stars never say what they see
   As the moon flirts with shadows it makes
   Through the fallen trees
   Some would wait for the morning light
   But I fall asleep 'til I'm safe
   In the arms of night
  
   Let the darkness roll in
   Let it wipe the light away
   In the distance
   Always calling
   Morpheus
   He beckons play
  
   Still the morning is pre-ordained
   But I believe light is the source of all of our pain
   It reveals our smallest sins
   But dark covers all and will always take you
  
   Armed and gunning
   I've been running
   Always just before the day
   In the distance
   Day is dawning
   But I'm already miles away
  
   In the night there's wonder
   Always there for you to see
   In the light of morning
   Visions fade
   And dreams can flee
  
   With the darkness the night forgives
   Covers our scars and lets
   The lost souls live
   And the morning's a distant fear
   But if we move fast they'll never find us
  
   Armed and gunning
   I've been running
   Through a world that's in decay
   Let them thunder stare and wonder
   Cause I'm already miles away
  
   And the rain comes down
