Werewolves, werewolves
Skies will brighten
Werewolves, werewolves
Skies will brighten
Brighten, brighten

[Pre-Chorus]
I-I'm on my way of the day
And I know
And I howl
And I prey
I-I'm on my way of the day
And I know
And I howl
And I prey
[Chorus]
I was like the skies
So bright at night
I was like the skies
I can see space on the radio
I was like the skies
So bright at night
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
I can see space on the radio
I was like the skies
As bright at night
All the way
I was like the skies
All again
I was like the skies
So bright at night
All the way
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
[Bridge]
I know, I know
I know, I know
And I'm ready to play
I, I know..
And I'm ready to play
[Pre-Chorus]
I-I'm on my way of the day
And I know
And I howl
And I prey
[Chorus]
I was like the skies
So bright at night
I was like the skies
I can see space on the radio
I was like the skies
So bright at night
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
I can see space on the radio
I was like the skies
All the way
I was like the skies
All again
I was like the skies
So bright at night
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
I was like the skies
So bright at night
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
[Outro]
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
Only 'cause I can't watch the day
