Think of the Night

Dream of the night, dream of the night
Hear it calling your name
Dream of the night, dream of the night
Like a moth to the flame

When the sadness comes, just a momentary pain

Think of the night, think of the night
Think of it drowning in rain

For a moment I felt electrical ecstasy
For a moment the gods knelt down in front of me
For a moment I held the night
Til everyone believed
Leave it to me

Trick of the light, trick of the light
See the darkening stains
Trick of the light, trick of the light
Feel the shadows enraged

In the crosswind squall, in the vortex hurricane

Think of the night, think of the night
Think of it howling in vain

For a moment I felt the flickering ecstasy
For a moment the gods knelt down in front of me
For a moment I held the light
So everyone could see
Leave it to me

Blink of an eye, blink of an eye
Feeling honor and shame
Blink of an eye, blink of an eye
Linking Abel to Cain

When the madman calls, like a bullet in the brain

Think of the night, think of the night
Think of it just like a train

For a moment I felt the shattering ecstasy
For a moment the gods knelt down in front of me
For a moment I held the knife
So everyone could see
Leave it to me
