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
