When did I become afraid of the dark?

Are my eyeballs just yet to adjust to seeing the light?

The room I′m in is still the same, the shadows have not rearranged it

No, the only thing that's changed is how I see at night

I fumble for the switch and strap on infrareds and wish

For sunshine when the morning′s somewhere else

But I can't change what time it is or dilate my irises

Only what I look at, and I'm looking at myself

I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night

Well, who else could I be when I can hardly see?

I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night

I′m no one if I′m nowhere in between

When did I become afraid of the dark?

Was it when I left the cave and swore I'd never go back?

If we can′t see each other, then there's no more use for hiding

I′ve decided I'll abide it; why deny the color black?

I′m not a flower, not a solar-powered calculator

Damn my eyes for seeing what's not there

I'll trade in vision for a practiced intuition

Till my fears come to fruition, I′m not scared

I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night

Well, who else could I be when I can hardly see?

I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night

I′m no one if I'm nowhere in between

The future must know where you′ve been

The past predicts the state you're in

The present did and will not last

Is, isn′t, was, have, hasn't, has

All that I ask is, keep those empty frames

If nobody′s in them, then no one is to blame

For your self-portraits, sign another name

Well, who should I be then, if I'll never be the same?

I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night

Who else could I be, when I can't fucking see?

I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night

I′m nowhere now, here′s no one now to be

And if dreams can come true, what does that say about nightmares?

I'll stay awake tonight
