Lyrics

In The Twilight

Give me the darkness that comes before the day is through
A timeless, lonely shore of a crepuscular hue
Where time's measured with an hourglass
Holding ashes of
What your mind's suicide
Made of our love
In the twilight that's where I'll stay
In the twilight neither night nor day
If that's a madman, well, who can say
Between the sun and moon, between good and bad
Between your Sunday best and the thoughts inside my head

Give me eerie music only I can hear
Playing on a phantom beach on a wild frontier
Give me eclipse of the sun as it starts to set
And a blood red moon that lights the way home north, south, east and west
Give me a hearse whose windshield
Shows the world in black and white
Whose cigarette lighter burns a hole through
The wall between day and night
In the twilight to my last breath
In the twilight between life and death
If that's a madman, well now you've guessed
Between the sun and moon, between good and bad
Between your Sunday best and the thoughts inside my head
In the twilight
