[Verse 1]
With heavy head and harbor mined
The red sun claws at my bloodshot eye
The faithful have scattered
They're running away
Along for the ride went all of my shame
Now I need someone
Sleep with me, sleep with me
Dark night coming, won't you sleep with me?
[Verse 2]
Those feral girls will suit me more than
Than gloss from drugstore magazines
Your werewolf teeth flicker and gleam
You're someone who saw
The same way I see
At the turn of a century
Skip thin dimes on sheets of ice
I got my eyes on you
You got your eyes on me
[Verse 3]
The angels have scattered
Swearing to god
The albatross dives on the firing squad
And I need someone
Sleep with me, sleep with me
Dark night falling, come on, sleep with me
[Verse 4 ]
Heavy head and asphalt lined
Gift horse pissed in my bloodshot eye
The dead dream on
The neon stare
The ambulance crawls
The siren I hear
And it finds me anywhere
The faithful have scattered
They're running away
Along for the ride when all of my shame
Because I need someone
You're looking at me
I've got my eyes on you
The world is falling away
And it's a dark night
