I am the lightning
   and the storm
   all hell broke loose
   on the night I was born
   a child of fire
   and burning flames
   look to the east
   and you'll see hence I came
  
   Might throw you into the darkness
   or save you by the light
   of the moon and stars
   ever shining
   celestial bodies burning bright
   burning bright
  
   I, I AM THE NIGHT
   I, I AM THE NIGHT
  
   I am the terror
   the beast at large
   heed my warning
   sound the alarm
   an endless shadow
   for daylight you pray
   lock your doors
   but you cannot get away
  
   Tender angels of mercy
   how they run from my sight
   eclipsed into darkness
   searching only for the light
   for the light
   for the light
  
   I, I AM THE NIGHT
   I, I AM THE NIGHT
