I Saw the Night

I saw the night, I saw it right
Under the soil
Darker than oil
I saw the night, I saw it right
Under our car
In the morning time
I saw the night, I saw it right
In the TV light
In the TV light
I heard the night, I heard its drone
With words like drums
That shake our bones
You shall not take this land from me
For who am I, but where I am
And who I am, with therein
I’ll be the night, I’ll be the night
