I am a creature of the night
I flit between dreams and the dark
yet I always live in the dark
I am a creature of the night
born of the sunset
alive in the hope of the sun
that hope which never quite dies
that hope which kills me
and, when the sun finally rises
I cease to be
I am a creature of the night
a shadow a sprite a wraith a spirit
I am a child within the night
wanting to hide away
where’s the light?
you said that the light would come
where’s the light?
Child, I have no light to offer
take my hope, let my hope be a light
you’ve none left
you’ve none left
