Nightfall |
| Honey, I know I’m moving too fast, walking over water, walking over stained |
| glass |
| Little white sparrows overhead |
| Fast as they fly away from here, baby I’d as soon be dead |
| All life, hillsides being torn down |
| Losing my mind, buildings all around |
| It’s too late, it’s too late, I ain’t gonna wait around |
| Honey, I’ll be gone before the nightfall |
| Polish off some Ballantines and chase it with some gin |
| Ten thousand scaffolds holding half a million kids |
| I reached to grab a glowing rose but instead I burned my hand |
| It was just a thousand moths covering a light, hoping that they’d found land |
| Life could be a luxury if life forfeited time |
| Because all that time has done to me is give then take what’s mine |
| It’s not mine, it’s not mine, I ain’t gonna waste more time |
| Honey, I’ll be gone before the nightfall |
