So you know. The title of the book is Dreamdarkers. That’s the new name for the darkness, the label for it and they and all that jazz. It’s copyrighted now.
If you remember the short story, there were two pat-a-cake songs. No more! Now there’s only one. Two was tedious and burdensome and… well, it was dumb. One is all that’s necessary and having only one makes more sense. It just makes them more believable not to be singing too many songs. One is enough. And here it is.
Darkness comes and falls
This we swear
Darkness falls and comes
You should care
With it comes the end of time
With it comes this simple rhyme
The hourglass sands are had in vain
There’s nothing left to erase the painDarkness fills the void
With violent strife
Darkness kills the worlds
With endless life
Tears blind vision like loss of sight
In our path there’s no equal might
Darkness comes and knows it must
See the worlds burned into dustDarkness is the verse
Sing it loud
Dreamdarkers universe
We are proud
Look upon us we do not ask
Into hellfire your gods are cast
Hope is just a fleeting promise
Darkness comes and is upon usDarkness rules time
Say we’re wrong
Darkness rules you
Sing the song
Your memories will never fade
Your memories feed our hate
Darkness touches all that lives
Dreamdarkers now are all that is
