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
