Blacklight
Ariel Maniki and the Black Halos
Are you there in silence
Too quiet and still?
Are you where they left you
Without saying a thing?
Can you hear the laments?
Don’t you feel too tired?
Is your skin made of tears?
Do you have a heart?
There are things forbidden
There are hidden truths
Like the glowest flower
In the darkest room
Black light pouring from your tired eyes
Black light shadows growing in our lives
Black light - sometimes loneliness is fine
Black light lighting up this falling skies
Are you there with no chains
Doing as you’re told?
In a world that crumbles
Languishing and cold
There are things beyond reach
There are hidden ways
Like the glowest flower
In the darkest place
Are you there unnoticed
Rolling dice in faith?
Carried by the current
Will you stay awake?
Black light pouring from your tired eyes
Black light shadows growing in our lives
Black light - sometimes loneliness is fine
Black light lighting up this falling skies
