By night beware
Half the world in sweetness
The other in fear
When the darkness takes you
With her hand across your face
Don't give in too quickly
Find the thing she's erased
Find the line, find the shape
Through the grain
Find the outline, things will
Tell you their name
The table. The guitar
The empty glass
All will blend together when
Daylight has passed
Find the line, find the shape
Through the grain
Find the outline, things will
Tell you their name
Now I watch you falling into sleep
Watch your fist curl against the sheet
Watch your lips fall open and your eyes dim
In blind faith
I would shelter you
Keep you in light
But I can only teach you
Night vision
Night vision
Night vision
By day give thanks By night beware Half the world in sweetness The other in fear When the darkness takes you With her hand across your face Don't give in too quickly Find the thing she's erased Find the line, find the shape Through the grain Find the outline, things will Tell you their name The table. The guitar The empty glass All will blend together when Daylight has passed Find the line, find the shape Through the grain Find the outline, things will Tell you their name Now I watch you falling into sleep Watch your fist curl against the sheet Watch your lips fall open and your eyes dim In blind faith I would shelter you Keep you in light But I can only teach you Night vision Night vision Night vision Explain Request ×
