The Light Of Day
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In that fleeting moment,
In between day and night,
Well they come on all fours
They bark and they bite
Brothers bound by blood
Lovers living in fear
Treasure that they seek
Is a pleasure buried here
Candle light upon your face
And in darkness is the safest place
I don't care if i ever see the light of day
Unsaid and yet understood
They never sleep. they never rest
The curse of endless life
An eternal wake from this
Close your eyes and i'll be there
On the other side of every breath
You'll never know, my love,
That sweet release of death
Candle light upon your face
And in darkness is the safest place
I don't care if i ever see the light of day
Underground, oh under the flowers
Where the sun never shines and nothing grows
And by the light of the moon we'll find our way
Candle light upon your face
And this darkness is our saving grace
I don't care if i ever see the light of day
Candle light upon your face
And this darkness is our safest place
I don't care if i ever see the...
Candle light upon your face
And this darkness is our saving grace
I don't care if i ever see the light of day
