Do you know of the dark and the sleep that waits?
I swim in the light when the end is near.
Do you feel unafraid of the beast that hates?
I breathe like the rest and he wades in my fear.
Can you stare in his face to let others see?
I crawl to his feet when he calls out my name.
Can you see without light to find your way free?
I lose sight of life in the black picture frame.
