Dawn & Dark

When all the stars and matter in the universe

At night time speed your fearful heart

Know that some place somewhere else on this earth of ours

Dawn wages war on the dark

When you feel small, recall the lowly ammonite

Leaving its indelible mark

From the humblest rock to the furthest satellite

Dawn wages war on the dark

And when all the things that glimmer in the atmosphere

Seem to flicker out without a spark

Know that some place somewhere else in another hemisphere

Dawn wages war on the dark

Remember this at times when you're uncertain

And your shaky world seems fit to fall apart

That as surely as the rivers reach the oceans

Dawn wages war on the dark
