Excerpt from the lyrics:

Children of Darkness
*
Now is the time for your loving, dear,
And the time for your company,
Now when the light of reason fails
And fires burn on the sea;
Now in this age of confusion
I have need for your company.
* *
For I am a wild and a lonely child
And the son of an angry man;
And now with the high wars raging
I would offer you my hand…
