Keep in the dark to stay out of the light
Keep in the dark to stay out of the light
Keep in the dark to stay out of the light
Just sleeping in the sunlight
Keep in the dark to stay out of the light
Keep in the dark to stay out of the light
Keep in the dark to stay out of the light
Just staying in the sunshine
Turn off your light, let's step into the dark
Sleep away the light that shines from here into her
Save your face and keep your hands firmly pressed into the earth
I feel relief when nighttime eventually comes
Talk of all the dreams, you surely had one
Mind your head and keep your hands firmly pressed into the earth
Dream on and sleep won't save you from the night
Drink up darling, dressed in white
A shameful display, sewn in velvet and lace
To keep in the dark
Dream on and sleep won't save you from the night
Drink up darling, dressed in white
I come with a string to recover the world
That sings in the night and never grows old
The night falling saves the grace with wondering eyes
Drawn to a beauty left to leer in the light
Climb the stairs and keep your only precious white wine full
Of worth
Resting hair of head, it's safe from the dark
Dressed in a body, left a stranger to her
Flashing words, attempt to call an all-showing girl your true worth
Dream on and sleep won't save you from the night
Drink up darling, dressed in white
A shameful display, sewn in velvet and lace
To keep in the dark
Dream on and sleep won't save you from the night
Drink up darling, dressed in white
I come with a string to recover the world
That sings in the night and never grows old
