Keep in the dark to stay out of the light
Just stay in the sunshine

Turn off your light, let’s step into the dark
Sleep away the light that shines from here into her
Save your face and keep your hands firmly pressed into the earth
I feel relief when night time eventually comes
Talk of all the dreams, you surely had one
Mind your head and keep your hands firmly pressed into the earth

Dream on and sleep won’t save you from the night
Drink up darling, dressed in white
A shameful display, sewn in velvet and lace
To keep in the dark

Dream on and sleep won’t save you from the night
Drink up darling, dressed in white
a colourless string to a colourful bow
that sings in the night and never grows old

The night falling saves the grace with wondering eyes
Drawn to a beauty left to leer in the light
Climb the stairs and keep your only precious white wine full of worth

Resting hair of head, it's safe from the dark
Dressed in a body left a stranger to her
Flashing words, attempt to call an all-showing girl your true worth

Dream on and sleep won’t save you from the night
Drink up darling, dressed in white
A shameful display, sewn in velvet and lace
To keep in the dark
