When the Night Comes Falling From the Sky

The words

A spurned lover warns that a reckoning is coming when darkness falls.

The singer addresses a woman who turned him away, and his hurt hardens into a warning that she will see him again when darkness finally falls. The verses mix wounded pride with images of upheaval and judgment, so a personal grudge starts to feel like something larger. The tone is brooding and insistent, building rather than resolving. At seven and a half minutes it is the longest song on the album.
