I can' t stand the way I was that day Speechless, with so much to say I wish I had run away But maybe it' s not too bad things didn' t happen that way At night when there' s no moon No one has a history The dark ages last a few hours But that' s all the time that' s needed To erase memories, create horrible dreams and ruin sleep Destroy all possibility of elimination It' s hard to live through this It' s harder to react When everyone' s behind your back It' s hard to know when you' re being attacked It' ll tear you up someday That' s a hope I can' t betray These ages will go away Maybe they' ll turn to darker days
