In the Twilight

She said, "You're terrible at staying
Probably better that you're going
All the love that you have stolen is a crime"

But I don't wanna lean on your piece of glass
Just to fly

She said, "You're always looking inside
Why not reaching outside
Put some focus on a picture perfect wife"
I said, "The earth is turning 'round, you know
The wind is changing also
Don't you think the same laws might apply to life?"

But I don't wanna lean on your wedding bell
Fare thee well
I'll remain your friend 'til we meet again
In the twilight

I said, "Everything is blurry
I almost can't tell you apart from all the
Other girls except you don't complain"
She said, "Better fix your vision
But I prefer the precision
Of everybody looking much the same"

But I don't wanna lean on your paper back
Let's turn the page
I will cheer you on 'til your game dissolves
In the twilight

Oh Magdalene, I love you, you think I'm insane
Well, I'm leaving on evening's train
Ah, hey Madonna, do the honors and pray for the day

Is the sun so selfish
Because it will set now?
Is the wind a jerk because it changed?
Would you call the earth an asshole
For turning 'round and round?
You know, it never ever stays in just one place

Now if I'm not mistaken
The natural equation
Would be you and I as best of friends for life

Cross all your lines and numbers
And wake up from the slumber
Into a dream of neither day or night

But I don't wanna lean on your wedding bell
Fare thee well
I'll remain your friend 'til we meet again
In the twilight
In the twilight
