| At that time of the night
|
| When streetlights throw crosses through window frames
|
| Paranoia roams where the shadows reign
|
| Oh, at that time of the night
|
| At that time of the night
|
| Your senses tangled in some new perfume
|
| Criticism triggers of a loaded room
|
| Oh, at that time of the night
|
| So if you ask me
|
| How do I fell inside
|
| I could honestly tell you
|
| We’ve been taken on a very long ride
|
| And if my owners let me
|
| Have some free time some day
|
| With all good intention
|
| I would probably run away
|
| Clutching the short straw
|
| At that time of the night
|
| When questions rally in an open mind
|
| Summon all your answers with an ice cube chime
|
| At that time of the night
|
| At that time of the night
|
| Pretend you’re off the hook with the telephone
|
| Your confidence wounded in a free fire zone
|
| Oh, at that time of the night
|
| So if you ask me
|
| Where do I go from here
|
| My next destination
|
| Even isn’t really that clear
|
| So if you join me
|
| And get on your knees and prey
|
| I’ll show you salvation
|
| We’ll take the alternative way
|
| Clutching the short straw
|
| If I had enough money
|
| I’d buy a round for that boy over-there
|
| A companion in my madness in the mirror
|
| The one with the silvery hair
|
| And if some kind soul
|
| Could please pick up my tab
|
| And while they’re at it
|
| If they could pick up my broken heart
|
| Warm wet circles… |
