Night

When the sun gets sinks in the shadow
My heart is drowned in sweet blues
It´s not that I like the yellow
At night I leave and I leave no clues

Tired of dialing telephone numbers
Everyone has their own business to care
Lots of duties in the list keep me under
All my solitude with stars I´ll share

So I open my door to the night fantastic
My prison bars get surprisely melt
I buy a bottle of wine, a cup of plastic
And begin my journey through Orion´s belt

Behind the full moon above,
Throughout the clouds of earthly life
I´m looking for a true love
To save me from the blade of this knife

I search for the joyful fairies
Apparently in the wrong type of booze
This one only brings me madness
And takes my head closer to the noose

Night doesn´t hold childish smiles and graces
Not the ordinary beauty of a sunflower
It is gloomy hearts within angel faces
A strange kind of sugar that is still sour

There are some times when I visit Mars
Melancholy insists madly to flow
So if it from a fair sky a storm starts
You will know that I´ve lost control

And time always leaves me behind
Passes me indifferent as the crowd
And vanishes in a blink of an eye
As I get inside the Argo´s prow

As the black is stained by the sunrise
I lose the dreams that night lends
I run back home as my fantasies die
My journey in the dark it sadly ends

Serene I sleep yet unresigned
After the trip the upcoming disgrace
Of leaving my starry-cloak behind
Of waking up again and facing another day

But another night may still come and I shall
Once more search for things which will never be found
And I´ll enter its gates one more time as it falls
Until inside it I´m finally free and forever bound.

I sincerely mean not to open my eyes
But these raylights hurt me once again
The little yellow claws are so stubborn to rise
All of my energy they eagerly drain

I daydream that the dark come soon
Cause from my petals the sun is feeding
A feverish rose, to reach death I bloom
Only the night oblivion can stop this bleeding.
