Sulphur, Salt and Mercury

Scared of the dark now aren't you all it's been that way since man's first fall
Terrified of what you still can't see this nether world is where one makes three...
Sulphur, salt and mercury these are the night's holy trinity
Without the sun shining
oh so bright all things take on their own true light
Nothing's real as they may seem
they're only scenes in one big dream
Give me night and give me death
the gods of old could no less
It's all the same if you ask me
but you won't know if you can't see
Sulphur, salt and mercury these are the night's holy trinity
Don't run away,
it will follow you
it will always know how to frighten you
Open your heart and see the night
and you'll be blinded by your newfound sight
Without the sun shining deadly bright
all things take on their own true light
The night is filled with a dark beauty
It's waiting there for you all to see
Sulphur, salt and mercury these are the night's holy trinity
