Come Back into the Darkness

by Dennis Hicks

Come back into the darkness
come back in my friend
I knew all along you couldn't stay gone
I knew you'd be back again

I have been waiting here patiently isolated
waiting for you to come back
Just a matter of time my friend
for your brightness to return to black

You see our place is very dark
It's been lonely here without you
for this is where lonliness prevails
where you join me when brightness is through

Yes my friend I'm glad you have returned
your brightness again faded to black
glad your sun doesn't shine anymore
Yes my friend I'm glad your back

But do me a favor and stay this time
please don't try to ever escape to the outside
stay here with me in the darkness
for it is here, with me, you reside

And when those fairytale illusions come again
when they start to give you hope
shut them out, run them off my friend
for here in the darkness you can cope

"Out of the blue and into the black
it's better to burn out than to fade away"
the songs lyrics are true for you and me
don't look back, come into the black
come back into the darkness to stay
