|
In the city, the day is too hot |
|
And you're hoping for relief |
|
'Cuz your head is filled with pain |
|
But you get no relief, 'cuz the night is the same |
|
In the night |
|
In the night you see through jaded eyes |
|
In the night |
|
In the night you feel barely alive |
|
You live your life in darkness |
|
You've got pennies on your eyes |
|
And you say that it's all right, 'cuz you've never lived a lie |
|
As you crawl back to your womb like existence in the night |
|
In the night |
|
In the night you see through jaded eyes |
|
In the night |
|
In the night you feel barely alive |
|
You can't see no light, but you hear those heavy footsteps |
|
And the little man inside twists your tormented mind |
|
Your mind is filled with shadows, your palms are wet with sweat |
|
Limbs are bound and tangled in a fatal net |
|
There are two things you can do one is turn and fight |
|
The other's run headlong into the night |
|
In the night |
|
In the night you see through jaded eyes |
|
In the night |
|
In the night you feel barely alive |
|
You can't see no light, but you hear those heavy footsteps |
|
And the breathing at your side, is it yours, or is it goodbye |
