The day the light went out

When they went to bed that night no one would have believed
That in the morning light would not be there
The dark hung heavy on the air like the grip of a jealous man
No place was there known to have been spared
Then panic took control of minds as fear hit everyone
The day the light went out of the daytime sky

Artificial light could hardly penetrate the gloom
Nothing out of reach could be observed
Looting, pillage, murder, rape became the rule of that day
Who hit him no one knew or whom he hit
Cars were caught in pileups and the planes could never land
The day the light went out of the daytime sky

Now I can rest here after my journey
Now I can feed here before I continue

Some there were who's heads were clear who sought, tried to find
The nature of this deadly foe, the dark
It seemed the sun was still somewhere though hidden from their sight
By something, though amorphous, yet alive
And so they looked for ways to rid themselves of the parasite
The day the light went out of the daytime sky

Now I can rest here after my journey
Now I can feed here before I continue

They tried in many fruitless ways to see the noonday sun
By blasting with their missiles through the dark
But soon a kind of sleepy state came over everyone
Till nothing seemed to stir or even breathe
And when the darkness chose to disappear not many had survived
Then came a shadow another had arrived
And again the light went out the daytime sky

When they went to bed that night no one would have believed 
That in the morning light would not be there 
The dark hung heavy on the air like the grip of a jealous man 
No place was there known to have been spared 
Then panic took control of minds as fear hit everyone 
The day the light went out of the daytime sky 
 
Artificial light could hardly penetrate the gloom 
Nothing out of reach could be observed 
Looting, pillage, murder, rape became the rule of that day 
Who hit him no one knew or whom he hit 
Cars were caught in pileups and the planes could never land 
The day the light went out of the daytime sky 
 
 Now I can rest here after my journey 
Now I can feed here before I continue
