Nexus

You look so damn good beneath stadium lights

The darkness comes gradually to stun

But I can't be this way, I can't hunt for my prey

I want to but I'm just not good enough

The nights get longer each night

And the hours tick slower each time I look up

So my hope fades away

I'm going where the tide's about to change

All the girls wearing sequins and pearls

Dressed up to score, best ones don't look like whores

I never could choose, simply born to lose this game

Each time here's the same

My friends all fumble and tumble through mists of regret

A night that shouldn't have been

I'll stand here waiting and crying alone in my room

Happiest when I'm not seen

The nights get longer each night

And the hours tick slower each time I look up

So my hope fades away

I'm going where the tide's about to change

I'm going where the tide's about to change
