The long knife of the sun rising Up the horizon and into our tired eyes The spell of night is struck down Our second sight is bleeding out Anna, can I come and walk you home? I'm not gonna wanna be alone Beaten up when the sunlight comes Bullied and cut by the clock on the wall Take the morning and the chlorinous light You can have the afternoon, bury the evening too Give me the gathering calm of the night When the day is done the rest is coming on Under the pitch and the pull of the moon Sweet silver medicine swim in my temples and Bring in the shadows to cover our flaws When the pain is gone, and the rest is coming on Coming on Coming on You belong out of that uniform Out in the streets when everyone else is asleep See the way the body sways In empty air when there's nobody there And you don't even care if there is Anna can I be to you like that? Cover your shame with a shield of black Cover your body with my trembling hands Have you dancing while I hold them back Hold back the morning and her chlorinous light Have at the afternoon, bury the evening too Let's have the gathering calm of the night When the day is done and the rest is coming on Under the pitch and the pull of the moon Sweet silver medicine swim in my temples and Bring in the shadows to cover our wounds When the pain is gone and the rest is coming on Coming on On and on On On and on Coming on Coming on
