The Darkest Nights
On the nights that darkness swallows faith, hope and trust,
All love seems lost and silence fills frightened ears,
Do not forget that we are all made of stardust.
Find courage when harsh words leave wounds that rot and rust
And gashes that ache when emptiness sears through scarred skin
On the nights that darkness swallows faith, hope and trust.
Up there beyond the reach of human anger, cruelty and disgust,
Ancient galaxies explode in a wild firework display so that we
Do not forget that we are all made of stardust.
If elements are created when atoms collide and combust
Then strength can be found anywhere if you dare to believe
On the nights that darkness swallows faith, hope and trust.
Like ripples lost in the ocean, one day our memories must
Fade into legend, myth and then be forgotten but
Do not forget that we are all made of stardust.
Some days your heart and soul will feel entirely crushed
And your mind and body will ache for love but
On the nights that darkness swallows faith, hope and trust
Do not forget that we are all made of stardust.
