about

The bulk of "Edge Of The Night" was written on a ukulele in the meditation hall at the Park Of Study And Reflection in Punta de Vacas, Argentina on January 2, 2015. It was inspired by the theme of the Internal Guide and the Guided Experience called "The Protector Of Life" from Silo's teachings/books.. The song's lyrics were also partially inspired by the movie The Shining.

lyrics

Edge Of The Night (For Danny Torrance)



When the world’s gone awry

And there’s no way out that you can buy

And you’re losing your way

In the hedges of a horror maze

I’ll arrive with flashlight

Cutting through the blackest night

I’ll get to you



When there seems no way out

And there’s no one there to hear you shout

When you can’t find the words

To express how you hurt

I’ll come round with knife

The protector of life

I’ll cover you



At the edge of the night

When you’re lost and you’re frightened

In the dead of the winter

Night

I will be your light



When there’s a way

There’s a will

When there’s a catch

There’s a kill

But the monster
In this film

Has got

A surprise

Coming his way



At the edge of the night

When you’re lost and you’re frightened

In the dead of the winter

Night

I will be your light


Your light

El Borde de la Noche (Para Danny Torrance)

Cuando el mundo se tuerza
Y no haya salida que puedas comprar
Y hayas perdido el rumbo
En los cercos de un laberinto de terror
Llegaré con linterna
Atravesando la noche más negra
Te alcanzaré

Cuando parezca que no hay salida
Y no hay nadie ahí para oírte gritar
Cuando no puedes encontrar las palabras
Para expresar cómo te duele
Vendré con un cuchillo
El protector de la vida
Te cubriré

Al borde de la noche
Cuando estés perdido y tengas miedo
En el filo de la noche
Invernal
Seré tu luz

Cuando hay manera
Hay voluntad
Cuando hay captura
Hay muerte
Pero el monstruo
En esta película
Tiene
Una sorpresa
Que se acerca

Al borde de la noche
Cuando estás perdido y tienes miedo
En el filo de la noche
Invernal
Seré tu luz
Tu luz
