The Dead of the Night |
| It is the dead of the night |
| Oh the dead of the night |
| I live on a dream, it came to me |
| When I was young |
| I brought it here, and now for years |
| The streets of London keep it safe and warm |
| Every morning it dies and it is reborn |
| In the dead of the night |
| I keep a pencil and a book |
| I say this is how a life can look |
| Russian roulette, French-kissed cigarette |
| And the silence like an anvil |
| The things that you learn, but now all |
| That burns |
| Is a candle |
| And the fog melts over the night, and |
| It softens the edges |
| I begin to write in the dead of the night |
| A bead of sweat runs down my arm |
| And I drink it from my skin |
| It is the most real thing that I feel |
| It is communion |
| Bless the meek |
| Heal the sick |
| Protect the weak |
| In the dead of the night |
