Darkness All Around Us

Bic Runga

It's time to sleep and walk out
It's far too late to talk about
We took a night of absence now
We walk among the town

At dawn a mist approaches
There's not a soul to speak of
It's time to change the map now
And sail upon the seas

A storyteller told me
There's darkness all around us
The darkness all around me said
“It's not just in your head”

A storyteller told me
There's darkness all around us
The darkness all around me said
“It's not just in your head”
