Lyrics

ETERNAL DARKNESS [1975]*
Joe Kozak


As the lovely lady sighs
The blind man on the corner cries
While people In disguise
Lay back and close their eyes
Shutting out the Holocaust
The loving that the earth has lost
And isolation reigns among the
People scattered and lonesome

The simple age of love is through
The bitter rage of war is due
Your friends they do their best for you
They tell you that there's nothing new
Eternal Darkness is at hand
To close in over all the land
See the people, set them right
Please see the day before the night.

And what can you do with friendly people so few
Their damnating eyes, their decadent cries
And then when I'm dead, they'll heed what I said
Eternal Darkness, the land that we tread.
