night rains

Lyrics

i have seen the starlight fading, into echoes on the floor, and i dreamed the stars parading, like tin soldiers on the shore, the city casts no shadow now, at midnight, all the whores, come out and dance with darkness, and the night rains pour, moonbeams gather dust, the cobwebs rust into the ground, windows stare at the open air, and the sparrows dare to drown, death becomes a debutante, stranded in her gown, branded like a leper, and the night rains down, by morning all the debutantes, and the virgins have their fill, it's a signal to the vagabonds, who come in for the kill, me, i must be lucky now, for the sky is with me still, it's written on the wind, that the night rains chill, i dreamed the sun was falling, into darkness, and i ran, into the night was endless, slipping through my famished hand, and the sky was like a furnace, i could not see to stand, committed to its emptiness, the night rains sand, i have seen the starlight fading, into echoes on the floor, and i dreamed the stars parading, like tin soldiers on the shore, the city casts no shadow now, at midnight, all the whores, come out and dance with darkness, and the night rains pour
