[Verse 1]
Out of the night comes a timeless thing
Calm in simplicity
Whispers soft, a seductive voice
Meant for the human ear
[Pre-Chorus]
Down, down, down
I'm gonna take you down
That's when the dying calls
[Chorus 1]
If I look in the dark of the world
If I lose, I don't mind
That is when the dying calls
[Verse 2]
Down through the ages from the dawn of time
Roam through the world of dreams
Up from the the black of the Mississippi mud
Calling out to everything
[Pre-Chorus]
Down, down, down
I'm gonna bring you down
That's when the dying calls
[Chorus 2]
If I play in the dark of the world
If I lose, I don't mind
That's when the dying calls
When the dying calls, hey
When the dying calls
[Chorus 2]
If I play in the dark of the world
If I lose, I don't mind
That's when the dying calls
When the dying calls
When the dying calls
When the dying calls, yeah
[Bridge]
Up from the black of night
When the dying calls
Down through the dawn of time
When the dying calls
[Chorus 1]
If I play in the dark of the world
And if I lose, I don't mind
That's when the dying calls, yeah
