At the Black of Beyond

Your rigid eyes stare into gloom
I'm pouring out my grief to you
Should I escape?
Nothing but silence where I stand
Just a slight light at the end to pretend
I could escape

White walls coming closer and closer
Absorb my words without response

I am your guide out of the dark
At the back of beyond
I hear your cries although they're gone

Strain to scream my heart to you
From my lips no sound escapes
Just light from the moon... a twilit cry
Trying to pick the better side
Stay in darkness, chase the light
Am I wrong, or am I right?

Painful sun is touching your face
A single ray may recall you to life

I am your guide out of the dark
At the back of beyond
I hear your cries although they're gone

Through the night, out of the dawn
I am by your side, but you are still alone

I am your guide out of the dark
At the back of beyond
I hear your cries although they're gone

Through the night, out of the dawn
I am by your side, but you are still alone
