They came in the dark with steps of steel
In smoke and flares and the smell of fear
Hearts of black, demon screeching, copter blades a-whirr
Surging dark, smoke and fire, blurry, unclear
*
In a flush fear took hold and for a moment clapped
Consumed best we had, and obscured their light
Wings of darkness descended, and the star-light blinked
Vile evil smirked forth and the angels cried
*
They were pleasant in life and in death not slain
Darkness won for a moment but will not remain
Faithful is consolation and true is His hope
Certain our triumph, hallowed is His name
*
Flee then darkness from light and Death, You be gone
For you time has passed and will not return
The lamplighters will come and you shall be scorned
And the light of the righteous will forever burn
*veritas
