The Dark Is Rising Lyrics

Cover art for The Dark Is Rising lyrics by Mercury Rev

The fragility of life and love are explored in this song. The idea of destiny and predestination offers hope to us as human beings. No one knows what life has in store for us and we have to accept that sometimes we have to eat shit in life but the promise of life’s mysteries and the ability to connect with human beings makes the journey worthwhile. That’s my interpretation… one of the most uplifting songs I’ve ever heard. Really strikes a chord. A true piece of art.
