Welcome To The Darkness

by The Brilliance

on Suite No. 1 Oh Dreamer (2018)

Verse 1
Welcome to the darkness
The fear will let you in
The route of all exclusion
Who is out and who is in?

Systems of belonging
Lock us in a cage
We fear those who are different
Refuse to see their pain

Chorus
In the heart of every man
There's a song that love began
Oh love
Oh love

Verse 2
Objectify the human
With anger, fear and shame
Damn them with religion
And never speak their name

Comfort, an illusion
Numb us to the pain
We cannot see our privilege
So we scapegoat and we blame

Chorus
In the heart of every man
There's a song that love began
Oh love
Oh love

In the heart of every man
There's a song that love began
Oh love
Oh love

Bridge
As old as the world is
The struggle is;
As long as the struggle lives
The world

As old as the world is
The struggle is;
As long as the struggle lives
The world
