"In Darkness Let Me Dwell" lyrics

Sting Lyrics

"In Darkness Let Me Dwell"

In darkness let me dwell; the ground, the ground shall sorrow be
The roof despair, to bar all, all cheerful light from me
The walls of marble black, that moist'ned, that moist'ned and still shall weep; still, shall weep

My music, my music hellish, hellish jarring sounds, jarring, jarring sounds to banish, banish friendly sleep
Thus, wedded to my woes, and bedded in my tomb
O let me live in dying, oh let me live in let me live in, live in dying
Till death, till death doth come
Till death, till death doth come
Till death, till death doth come

In darkness let me dwell
