Into that darkness   Into that darkness   Like jackals howling   Like flowers unfolding      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   The banners in tatters   The virgin is blessed      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   As if seeking there   Hope's bloody prey   The dead dog sinking   Turning and turning      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   The bodies collapsed   Swollen with gas      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   In the hovels and gutters   Her face to the storm      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   Still broken, still bleeding   The crack of the neck   The gut shriek of thunder   The blood call of lightning      She said destroy in black New York...      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   Like jackals howling   Like flowes unfolding      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   The virgin has blessed   The call of the beast      Into that darkness   Into that darkness   As if seeking there   Hope's bloody prey   The dead dog sinking   Turning and turning      She said destroy in black New York...
