How Long is the Night?

If we run far away do you think we will ever die?

We'll throw these books in the fire

Can you stop the train

Cause it some delay?

The change machine lied

And it's too late to scream

How long is the night?

It's never over

The ribbon was tied

But the card was never read

The ribbon was crimson

The color of the night

Can you see the handwriting on the walls

And on the autumn leaves that fall

"What are we gonna do?"

The trees are giving up on us

The needle and the thread

Won't stitch us to the branch

And the night never ends

I will never sleep again

(I will never even close my eyes)

If the sun is on its way

Then we will never die

And we'll follow these tracks to the sight

Now the lungs collapse

And the air is getting thin

All breath expired

Is too late to heal?

How long is the night?

It's all I ever see anymore

But the day was so bright in the pictures

In the photo album that you gave me

It's all I have to live for

I'm falling down

And you're not here to break my fall

I shut my eyes when you're around

I hold my breath to kill the sound of your voice

I'm falling down.

And you're not here to break my fall
