Black Mountain Totem

[Verse 1]

I am in a mountain cave

The night is playing outside

[Verse 2]

Seas yonder swim in starlight

Swirling fires grace the plains

[Chorus]

There are treasures the night can't hide

And within me things no sun can see

This is where I stood my ground

Opened the gates for you and me

[Verse 3]

For each day that passes

I see more and more

Sometimes the universe opens

And the soul cries, hoarse and sore

[Chorus]

Still I live for those moments

At least the ancient ones stand by my side

No matter how the human plague weighs heavy

Night on Earth can harbour eternal pride

[Verse 4]

There are treasures the night can't hide

And within me things no sun can see

This is where I stood my ground

Opened the gates for you and me
