We climb slowly out from under the rock We were hiding
|
To greet the sun as it leaves the sky
|
On the cycle it was riding
|
And we stand new
|
Beneath the blanket of stars
|
So vast it sways our stance
|
And swaying
|
We continue to rise
|
Until it becomes one outright dance
|
|
And the moon keeps watch as the howling grows
|
Into one single petal
|
From a very different rose
|
And when we all get lost in
|
The throbbing throng's exhaustion
|
We actually touch those flickering lights
|
And give them something back
|
We are in fact the children of the night
|
|
A spark of smoke in the air
|
Commands the revelries as I attend
|
It says "be not afraid beneath
|
The heavens for the evening is your friend"
|
|
And the moon keeps watch as the howling grows
|
Into one single petal
|
From a very different rose
|
And when we all get lost in
|
The throbbing throng's exhaustion
|
We actually touch those flickering lights
|
And give them something back
|
We are in fact the children of the night
|
