에밀리 디킨슨의 시 <We grow accustomed to the Dark>와 에밀리 브론테의 시 <The night is darkening round me>를 가사로 사용했다.
We grow accustomed to the Dark
When Light is put away
As when the Neighbor holds the Lamp
To witness her Goodbye
A Moment We uncertain step
For newness of the night
Then fit our Vision to the Dark
And meet the Road erect
And so of larger Darknesses
Those Evenings of the Brain
When not a Moon disclose a sign
Or Star come out within
The Bravest grope a little
And sometimes hit a Tree
Directly in the Forehead
But as they learn to see
Either the Darkness alters
Or something in the sight
Adjusts itself to Midnight
And Life steps almost straight
The night is darkening round me
The wild winds coldly blow
But a tyrant spell has bound me
And I cannot, cannot go
And I cannot, cannot go
The giant trees are bending
Their bare boughs weighed with snow
The storm is fast descending
And yet I cannot go
And yet I cannot go
The clouds beyond clouds above me
Wastes beyond wastes below
But nothing drear can move me
I will not, cannot go
But nothing drear can move me
I will not, cannot go
I will not, cannot go
