Some nights are sleepless
some nights you feel so small
your mind is like a ballroom
ghastly thoughts are doing the waltz
yellow eyes and pointed ears
give shape to all your fears
on a night like this
don't look under the bed!
and it's scary
some nights are ugly
some just rip you to the bone
memories are uninvited ghosts!
in the hours before the dawn
the hours love falls apart
the hours death pays a visit
on a night like this
your lover said "goodbye..."
and it was scary
some nights are sleepless
some nights you feel so small
you are doomed to stay awake
and just before the dawn
you will come up with ideas
and plans for a brighter future
after a nights like this
you see things more clearly...
and that's scary...
