You tell me "Come over then settle there to read"
And say "It can wait"
I'm so unstable and i begin to leave
Still holding this cage
'Cause I have dragged in corpses warmth on their lips
As evidence of life
And I have found their voices hard to resist
Even when they lie

They're still talking
And telling me I run
Like I don't read the signs
Some are beating drums
Staying low but holding time

Show me something surreal
Your new lover on fire
In the night, in the night
Are you hopeless like me?
Then you'll notice those fires
In the night, in the night

So why can we never
Say the things we mean
Before it's too late?
I've got some secrets
I intend to keep
Down to my grave
'Cause I've built a fortress, failures and bricks
Underneath the ice
You have come and placed your hand on my wrist
Dragged me in the light
Now I'm hoping
I will be enough
To behold for a time
And i would even trust
With control
Who relies

Show me something surreal
Your new lover on fire
In the night, in the night
Are you hopeless like me?
Then you'll notice those fires
In the night, in the night

In the night

Beg for it (Beg for it)
Beg for it (Beg for it )
I'm nervous
I'm insincere
Beg for it (Beg for it)
Beg for it (Beg for it )

Show me something surreal
Your new lover on fire
In the night, in the night
Are you hopeless like me?
Then you'll notice those fires
In the night, in the night
In the night
