Where there's no light, the air hangs foul
In cruelest night hides the darkest sounds
Don't be afraid
Though I would

The thing that follows in the shadows
With eyes that swallow you, it takes control
Don't be afraid
Yeah, I would
('Round and 'round we go)

That faithless sky, that nameless calm
An unwelcome passenger to guide you on
Don't be afraid, child
You're already gone

That thing that binds you in the shadows
The smile that smothers you, your lovely bones
You'll be afraid
Yeah, I know
('Round and 'round we go)

Calm children, calm (now I have you, I won't let you go)
Be passive and strong (you won't be without me, you'll never be alone)
Born to a world (now I have you, I can't let you go)
That's cruel, so cruel (can't breathe without me, can't ever be alone)
Calm children, calm (now I have you, I won't let you go)
From shadow become (won't live without me, you'll never be alone)
So young and warm (and now you have me, no need for you to go)
And so cruel, cruel (there's no you without me, there's no me without you)

Let it all
Fall (I won't let you)
Down (I won't ever let you go)

Things that haunt you from the shadows
That shade that covers you and makes you whole
Don't be afraid
Let two become one

'Round and 'round we turn the page
'Round and 'round we turn the page (things that haunt you in the shadows)
'Round and 'round we turn the page
'Round and 'round we turn the page (the smile that smothers you, it takes control)
