At that time of the night
|
When streetlights throw crosses through window frames
|
Paranoia roams where the shadows reign
|
Oh, at that time of the night
|
At that time of the night
|
Your senses tangled in some new perfume
|
Criticism triggers of a loaded room
|
Oh, at that time of the night
|
|
So if you ask me
|
How do I fell inside
|
I could honestly tell you
|
We've been taken on a very long ride
|
And if my owners let me
|
Have some free time some day
|
With all good intention
|
I would probably run away
|
Clutching the short straw
|
|
At that time of the night
|
When questions rally in an open mind
|
Summon all your answers with an ice cube chime
|
At that time of the night
|
At that time of the night
|
Pretend you're off the hook with the telephone
|
Your confidence wounded in a free fire zone
|
Oh, at that time of the night
|
|
So if you ask me
|
Where do I go from here
|
My next destination
|
Even isn't really that clear
|
So if you join me
|
And get on your knees and pray
|
I'll show you salvation
|
We'll take the alternative way
|
Clutching the short straw
|
|
If I had enough money
|
I'd buy a round for that boy over-there
|
A companion in my madness in the mirror
|
The one with the silvery hair
|
And if some kind soul
|
Could please pick up my tab
|
And while they're at it
|
If they could pick up my broken heart
|
|
Warm wet circles...
|
