Lyrics

[01:15] ＂Don＇t look, don＇t look＂, the shadows breathe,
[01:20] Whispering me away from you,
[01:25] ＂Don＇t wake an eye to watch her sleep,
[01:29] And know that you will always sleep.＂
[01:31]
[01:34] This trembling drone,
[01:37] Dazzled burn like gold
[01:40]
[01:43] Everynight I burn,
[01:46] Everynight I call your name,
[01:52] Everynight I burn,
[01:55] Everynight I fall again.
[01:59]
[02:02] ＂Don＇t talk of love＂, the shadows burn,
[02:06] Murmuring me away from you,
[02:11] ＂Don＇t talk of worlds that never were:
[02:15] An end is all that＇s ever true.
[02:20] There＇s nothing you can ever say;
[02:25] There＇s nothing you can ever do.＂
[02:27]
[02:29] Still, everynight I burn,
[02:32] Everynight I scream your name,
[02:39] Everynight I burn,
[02:41] Evernight the dream＇s the same.
[02:48] Everynight I burn,
[02:50] Waiting for my only friend,
[02:57] Enerynight I burn,
[02:59] Waiting for the world to end.
[03:06]
[04:11] ＂Just paint your face＂, the shadows smile,
[04:15] Slipping me away from you,
[04:20] ＂It doesn＇t matter how you hide,
[04:24] We＇ll find you if we＇re wanting to.
[04:29] So slide back down and close your eyes,
[04:34] Sleep awhile you must be tired.＂
[04:37]
[04:39] Everynight I burn,
[04:41] Everynight I call your name,
[04:48] Everynight I burn,
[04:50] Everynight I fall again.
[04:57] Everynight I burn,
[04:59] And scream the animal scream,
[05:06] Everynight I burn,
[05:09] And dream the crow-black dream,
[05:16] Everynight I burn,
[05:18] And scream the animal scream,
[05:25] Everynight I burn,
[05:27] And dream the crow-black dream,
