I'm all right - I'm crossing over
I just shot the sun
One more night - black as heaven
So no-one saw the gun
Running with monsters in shadows
And monsters always know
It's better in the dark
Oh, she's all right - tall and handsome
If the lights are down
Gone by dawn - takes no chances
Might come back around
Clutching to monsters in shadows
And monsters always know
It's better in the dark
I'm all right - I'm crossing over
I can disappear - gone
Clutching to monsters in shadows
And monsters always know
It's better in the dark
Better in the dark
I just shot the sun
