Universe Conclusion
We know there are
There are stars behind those stars
There are bands after this band
There are shows after this show
There are streets beyond those streets
There are towns beyond this town
There are hills beyond those hills
There are seas beyond those seas
There are stars behind those stars
There are skins beneath these shirts
There are hearts beneath those skins
There are hearts beneath those hearts
There are stars beyond those stars
There are nights darker than this night
There are nights after tonight
Black night is fallen,
The sun is gone to bed,
Black night, I am in your eyes,
Black night, take me, try
Black night, I'm at your side
Black night, I've become your bride
Oh, black night, take me inside,
For you have spread me wide
What use, wide eyes, in black night?
In black night's longer sight,
Take me inside!
Take me and make me wide, black night!
I feel your sword swoop past my ear,
I feel your cold, red palm open on my hand,
I feel you fangs upon my skin,
I feel the distance between us and them,
There are black nights beyond tonight!
There are stars beyond our sight!
Take me inside, open my eyes,
Take me dry, take me inside,
Make me yours and spread me wide, black night!
Spread me wide!
Black night, I have become your eyes,
In noon's bright light, I am your spy
So where'd my life go?
Where'd I live my life?
How'd all my songs go so fast?
Why, oh why, did I think they're mine?
Black night, where are you, eyes?
In my mind, you rise in noon's light
So, I see headlights on the ridge of the hill,
Tears tear my eyes,
I won't start singing until this place is empty,
I won't stop singing until this place is empty,
Black night, I won't start singing 'til this place is clear
I won't give in out of fear,
I won't start singing until this place is empty,
I won't start singing until this place is empty
You're mine, black night,
Show me why
There are stars behind those stars
There are bands after this band
There are shows after this show
There are streets beyond those streets
There are towns beyond this town
There are hills beyond those hills
There are seas beyond those seas
There are stars behind those stars
There are skins beneath these shirts
There are hearts beneath those skins
There are hearts beneath those hearts
There are stars beyond those stars
There are nights darker than this night
There are nights after tonight
Black night is fallen,
The sun is gone to bed,
Black night, I am in your eyes,
Black night, take me, try
Black night, I'm at your side
Black night, I've become your bride
Oh, black night, take me inside,
For you have spread me wide
What use, wide eyes, in black night?
In black night's longer sight,
Take me inside!
Take me and make me wide, black night!
I feel your sword swoop past my ear,
I feel your cold, red palm open on my hand,
I feel you fangs upon my skin,
I feel the distance between us and them,
There are black nights beyond tonight!
There are stars beyond our sight!
Take me inside, open my eyes,
Take me dry, take me inside,
Make me yours and spread me wide, black night!
Spread me wide!
Black night, I have become your eyes,
In noon's bright light, I am your spy
So where'd my life go?
Where'd I live my life?
How'd all my songs go so fast?
Why, oh why, did I think they're mine?
Black night, where are you, eyes?
In my mind, you rise in noon's light
So, I see headlights on the ridge of the hill,
Tears tear my eyes,
I won't start singing until this place is empty,
I won't stop singing until this place is empty,
Black night, I won't start singing 'til this place is clear
I won't give in out of fear,
I won't start singing until this place is empty,
I won't start singing until this place is empty
You're mine, black night,
Show me why
