Stop the night, the night

My thoughts get louder after dark

Oh the lies

The crazies tell me this much

Aha!

It's a simple enough task boys

To find a living miracle

But the living ain't easy

I need a shot of medecine

Start the day, the day

My head denies I'm breathing

It likes to say

Am I here or leaving me?

There's a want I ask all the time

Possesion of my right mind

You're not deaf but I still have to shout

Watch out there's a lot of thieves about

All along the way

I stand beside myself

And look at all my world

No need to tell me

I see dead men playing

I hear cries from many

I hear tears and then some

I hear hop I'm hoping

I'm caught with all the shutters down

Who's looking through my window?

I had to close the saddest eyes

You've got to be a winner

You've got to be cool

I see me inside you

I hear fear and then some

I see children playing

I see hope I'm hoping

Far away

I hear a memory calling me

I'd like to stay

But my obsession wants to play
