DUSK
The setting sun is a golden glow
Soon the darkness will surround us
The river down below casts a golden glow
Soon the darkness will surround us
The dome overhead takes on a purple hue
The hour of twilight is upon us
Polaris-o-Polaris show yourself
The hour of twilight is upon us
Bears, bows, and snakes invade the sky
The darkness has surrounded us
The rabbit in the glowing orb rises up
The nightlight gently parts the shadows
A glimmer of hope is this glowing orb
The moon with no face is our salvation
Beacon-o-beacon guide our way
The darkness has surrounded us
