The Day and the Night

I woke up with a scream in my throat

Something evil I saw then I choked

Never thought I would dream of LaVey

And never see the light of day

Then the dawn reeked of swine like a slut

I'm in bed as the light got so dim

And the globe of ascent turned to suet

A new night came rolling in

New night came rolling in

When you come I greet you, we are the same

And we make love in the dark

You can hide, I see you, the night's alive, I know

To survive, I need you and you need me

Cruel and corrupt, please make it stop

I should be fast asleep but I'm still up

Nowhere to run, I know it has begun

I'm not sure I'll see tomorrow's sun

I ride the mare to hell and back

In this madness I sweat and burn

Every night I'm sleepless, every hour a spell

Every minute a lost life, a year in hell

Cruel and corrupt, please make it stop

I should be fast asleep but I'm still up

Nowhere to run, I know it has begun

I'm not sure I'll see tomorrow's sun

Yes, the day is the czar of the night

And the moon is the sun's other side

So the night is the scar of the day

And the shit won't go away

The shit won't go away

When you come I greet you, we are the same

And we make love in the dark

You can hide, I see you, the night's alive, I know

To survive, I need you and you need me

Cruel and corrupt, please make it stop

I should be fast asleep but I'm still up

Nowhere to run, I know it has begun

I'm not sure I'll see tomorrow's sun

Sometimes long and wonderful

Sometimes cool and full of soul

Sometimes crude and grim and foul

The day is warm, the night is cold

Lost in the dark, I'm lost in the dark

Lost in the dark, I'm lost in the dark

Lost in the dark
