new nights

 

every second is an hour 

every minute oh it suffers me its speed

every hour tears me asunder

and anything longer is an insult to my heartbeat

 

every moment it strikes me deeper

that I step in time to no one on the streets

and you walk so far ahead now

it’s a pace that even running I can’t keep

 

hey wait please wait

I don’t want you to leave

hey wait please wait

aren’t you forgetting about me?

 

every morning is a murder

there’s my body and it’s 

spread out on the sheets

and every afternoon is a terrible surprise

 

that the day would dare to continue

the day would dare to continue

the day would dare to continue

without you by my side

 

oh the nights 

oh the nights 

oh god the nights

 

hey wait please wait

I can’t take it if you leave

hey wait please wait

don’t go without me

don’t go without me
