Ain't nothing like the night
Taking all day long
Sittin' on a cigarette
Singin' my song
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
I'm under attack in a hotel in New Orleans
But there ain't nothing for them to find
I'm just trying to lose my mind
In a war for everything
You've gotta fight to kill some time
I've seen it in a dream
And I've seen it while awake
But don't you get me wrong
I've known it all along
A single file
The line is grinding on
But I'm as quiet as a dog
And I'm looking for the moon
Have I've fallen of the rhythm
Am I going out of tune
Come on, give up, give in
Come on, give up, give in
I hope you eat 'til you're spacious
And sip from the hourglass
'Cause you're the color of fire
And whiter than winters passed
And you're a fly in the light
You're a stranger in the night
Did I catch you looking at me in the mirror?
You're a fly in the light
You're a stranger in the night
Did I catch you looking at me in the mirror?
Well I ain't the same
Because I think it's rude
And I change my name
Like I change my mood
But I ain't changing for you
No, I ain't changing for you
Coal black night
Got nothing for the birds
I ain't sayin' nothin'
'Cause I ain't got the words
But maybe it's true
Maybe it's true
That everything seems to happen for a reason
So I'm waiting to find out
How it's gonna end and why I'm here
How it's gonna end
How it's gonna end and why I'm here
