1 Verse

When the clock strikes midnight

And the last of the light is gone

You close your eyes

You reach inside the confines

Of your heart

You hear…

Whispers in the dark

Echoes of a broken heart

Whispers in the dark

The silent sounds tearing you apart

2 Verse

Destination no tomorrow

Written in your hand

The page that turned from hope to sorrow

It’s more than they’ll ever understand but

You hear…

Whispers in the dark

Echoes of a broken heart

Whispers in the dark

The silent sounds tearing you apart

These things you hear

The thoughts you fear

3 Verse / Chorus

Stay away from open gateways to the underworld

Many travelers suffered here

Their echoes cry through walls that sigh

4 Verse / Chorus

Fallen angels cry to heaven

The tears of men

Lost and forsaken

Those of us who will be  taken

See this world no more
