The Night Won't Scare Me

Tricky calling shots with a myoptic vision
Must be hard to see what’s standing back in the mirror
Every night

It’ll all be different from this moment forward
Let your guard down, turn around, jump shot
What is right?
Just might, not matter

And the grass is green everywhere you’re not
And the dark shows us how to light
And it’s all in the breeze, said the tornado
Then it winked at me, loss of life

Tricky pulling words just like that out of the sky
How’s this ever gonna make sense to both you and I
All the time
You and I

And the grass is green wherever you go
The next excuse, colour blind
And mistakes are made, and from that we grow
Like the grass upon the crash site

Turn the light off in the bedroom
Unless I can run and hide
Being here and not here
Here and far off, same time
I never want to hurt you but I’m gonna make you cry
Being here and not here
Two, much, one, life

And a new day, a new day is fast approaching
Along the way I heard we all tell ourselves stories to live
And survive

Scrape your conscience clear so there’s no trace of
And we never learn, time and time
And that’s not it, said the outcome
And you know in your heart what is right
Who warms, who shades, and who just never learns
Black and white make grey, act surprised
And decisions made, or are they prescribed
Who presides, resides, turns on the lights

The night won’t scare me away
The night won’t scare me away
Woh, oh

And the night won’t scare me away
The night won’t scare me away
Woh, oh

(The night won’t scare me away)
(The night won’t scare me away)
