Killing Joke - Darkness Before Dawn lyrics

The lore of elders passes
Judgement on this waste
And finding me or them
Does lack accepting fate
And as the moments pass another face arrives
We watch them come and go
With speed of passing clouds

Forbidden fruit's of dreams that rule
Our thoughts my love
Of lands untouched and ways
To come always maybe
But choking on the promises
Meant for the deal
Thinking again the darkest hour
Before the dawn

Confirming fears that from the dawn
Of time have been
Retracing footsteps in dark chambers
Of grey lands
And through the madness through the
Terror we must pass
As if awaiting sunlight that may never come
In time we face ourselves with
All our faults and fears
Now that I know the final conflict is within
I recognise the faces of my
Friends and hear the call "Come journey
Journey with me through the darkest hour"
