This tattered document, a mystery you can solve
Some burnt out filament flies buzzing around the bulb
Country darkness
He thought of traveling heard an approaching train
Drown out his desperate pulse, a song with no refrain
Country darkness
Oh, she daydreams of forbidden sins there must be something more
The prison she lives in the one with the open door
A veil is covering a glistening cruel blade
Suffer little children repent, unfaithful maid
Country darkness, country darkness, country darkness
Oh, she daydreams of forbidden sins there must be something more
The prison she lives in the one with the open door
A veil is covering a glistening cruel blade
Suffer little children repent, unfaithful maid
Country darkness, country darkness, country darkness, oh
Oh
