spirit of the dark horse

dark horse in the night

uncle pulls us closer 

beside the fires glow

looks deep into our eyes 

and decides we’re ready

he said those to whom you are among

are not as they once were

what used to fill these hearts has fallen

dark horse in the night

heard them stirring last night 

by the edge of the forest

autumn, savior, hush now 

they grow restless

he said those to whom you are among

are not as they once were

what used to fill these hearts has fallen

thunder high, dark as night 

no one knows

dark he fights, won’t let the night 

steal our soul 

no, he won’t
