that's how they teach me to expect the worst
all thoughts and words I've cursed I know
I'm moving but too slow
and all the shadows hiding
in the woods the scary monsters of my youth
and all the sparkling eyes that welcome me
illuminate the night for me
we raise the glasses and drop our minds
in damn cold dark blue nights we sleep
dreamless but I sleep
and all the shadows hiding in the woods
the scary monsters of my youth
and all the sparkling eyes that welcome me
illuminate the night for me
and as very brittle as this life may
is the past is past where present is
and as very brittle as this life may
is the past is past where present is
I take care not to make much noise
when I leave when I leave
but half the way towards the city lights
we will meet we will meet
I take care to let the monsters sleep
when I leave when I leave
but half the way towards the city lights we will meet
