Fly By Night

Waiting for dawn

Screaming inside, eyes open wide

Can't hide

Fly by night in the great wild moon howling drunken light

Eyes open wide, cry

By and by and by and by we go

For we know what we do not want to know

Show me

NO, don't show me forsaken truths hauntingly familiar

Fly by night

Fly quickly by

Fly by, and by, and by

Dawns light awaits.
