IN THE DARKNESS song lyrics / words by William Shakespeare and Joel Sattler

[adapted from Ariel’s Song from THE TEMPEST by William Shakespeare]

Full fathom five

In the darkness

Is where thy father lies

Those are pearls

In the darkness

The pearls that were his eyes

Those pearls that were his eyes

Of his bones are coral made

and nothing of him but doth fade away

Nothing of him doth remain

But doth suffer a sea-change

Into something rich and strange

In the darkness  

******************  

Full fathom five

In the darkness

Is where thy father lies

Those are pearls

In the darkness

Those pearls that were his eyes 

They’re singing in the darkness

Bells ringing in the darkness

The dark you know so well 

Gone missing in the darkness

Gone missing in the darkness

The Seventh Gate of Hell
