here we are
sitting under a velvet sky
a suede moon
and a silky atmosphere
holding hands
pulling skirts
and kissing
like lovers do
like killers
captured by the night
and we sleep
never all the way
always with an eye
to the sky
to the night
to the door
waiting for her return
seeking her vengeance
and looking for finality
in a scene
you've never seen
in a light
you'll never fight

its all that's left
waiting in the doorway
standing over your bed
standing at the foot
watching your every breath
waiting for your one eye
to open
and to see its last sight
to view its last night
and set its soul to rest
your the hero
in this tale

this story of tomorrow
your the lover
and the prince
your everything we all want to be
when it comes to these nights
where we cant sleep
so we rest our eyes
and pull back our drinks
choke down a pill
and set off
to the velvet night
to the crescent moon
and the silky atmosphere
