Nightlight
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.
When the wind, behind our eyes
Swell
Starring down all, who generalize
Well
A chemical change of the spirit
Will be the exchange for our visit
Putting more makeup on the masks
That we wear
Turning the nightlights on in the
Daytime to scare
If we say that (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If it's a game well? (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we enter, through the front door
With the keys we stole the night
Before
Now we have right to be the masters
Of the tangles of disaster
Ladies and gentlemen its time to
Unveil
If this is the moment now to ask "do
We dare?"
If we say that (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If it's a game well? (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we survive this (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
So delegate it! (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
Turning the nightlights on in the
Daytime to scare
If this is the moment now to ask "do
We dare?"
If we say that (we want it)
If we say that (we want it)
If we say that (we want it)
If we say that (we want it, we
Want it)
If we say that (we want it)
If it's a game well? (we want it)
If we survive this (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we say that (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If it's a game well?(we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
If we survive this (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
So delegate it! (we want it)
We only want it with the lights out
