Tonight I'm going to sleep again, my darling
as anyone does, but I'm still afraid
they'll getting to my throat, breathless, that's what I'll be
while I can feel tears streaming down my face

Did I lock the door, my beloved
have we put down the burning candles
Look how dark it is toninght, it makes me so scared
with that, I have to close my eyes,
how do I know it's not another end

Please, leave the lights on, father
and come laying down next to me
promise to me that you watch over me,
please daddy, I'm just so afraid

And when I wake up again tomorrow
that forsaken fact, oh God
the beginnings will be ending again,

-everything slowly gets taken
I know I can't keep all that's mine

Lay me down, my lover
kiss me goodnight with your silent lips
I know I'll lose the fight, but when it's finally over


will you please leave the lights on to deny the mist
