The Night Has Come
Embracing the Colors of Darkness
Lyrics
In the darkness
In the state of obscurity or lack of light
I am colorized
I am imbued with vibrant hues or emotions
In a world full of grey
In a world full of dullness or monotony
The sun is setting
The sun is descending
On the atmosphere
In the surrounding environment
As the night steals the day
As nighttime overtakes the daytime
Separated
Set apart
From the colorblind
From those unable to perceive colors
They just see monochrome
They only perceive black and white
The muted shades
The subdued variations
And the undertones
And the underlying nuances
In a world not my own
In a world that doesn't feel familiar
The clock is ticking
Time is passing
I'm out of time
I'm running out of time
As the night starts fading in
As the night begins to become dominant
The fading glow
The diminishing radiance
As the sun sets low
While the sun descends
And we're left here in our sin
And we remain here burdened by our wrongdoing
There's no tomorrow
There's no future day
And no promises
No commitments or assurances
To live life once again
To experience life once more
When midnight hits
At the stroke of midnight
That's all there is
That's the ultimate reality
Not what else could have been
Not what alternative outcomes might have been
What else could have been
When time is gone
Once time elapses completely
There is no coming back
There's no possibility of return
To try it over again
To attempt it anew
The choice we make
The decisions we've made
Before we fade to black
Before we succumb to darkness
To live or die in our sin
To exist or perish within our wrongdoing
As the night starts fading in
As the night begins to become dominant
The fading glow
The diminishing radiance
As the sun sets low
While the sun descends
And we're left here in our sin
And we remain here burdened by our wrongdoing
There's no tomorrow
There's no future day
And no promises
No commitments or assurances
To live life once again
To experience life once more
When midnight hits
At the stroke of midnight
That's all there is
That's the ultimate reality
Not what else could have been
Not what alternative outcomes might have been
Could have been
There were potential alternatives
What else could have been
Other possibilities existed
Could have been
There were potential alternatives
