You Are the Night

We are enshrouded

by a veil of darkness.

This deafening blackness

will tear us apart.

We never learned to live,

only to die.

Empty days

dominate our lives.

We never learned to dream,

only to lie.

Sleepless nights

dominate our lives.

Can you collect some stars for me?

I need to drink their cold and icy light.

Please make me find some solace,

for you are the night.

There is no hope for us

for we are creatures of defeat.

We stumble through the darkness.

In search for light

we'll go blind.

Can you bring down the moon for me?

I need to eat his cold and icy light.

Please make me find some solace,

for you are the night.

For you are the night.

Will we learn to dance one day

in total darkness?

Please send your son to me

for he will kill all my dreams.

Drown me in your darkness

for you are the night!

Drown me in your darkness

for you are the night!

You are the night.
