The night has fallen down the staircase
And I,
for one, have felt its bruises
Equilbrium;
inebriated
Our social graces have been
displaced

As we sink deeper into the
drink
The volume increases....
Night time
resurrects fault lines
Silent wars -- rumble
somewhere below
The surfaces verses...
The
surfaces verses...
The shoe is dropped, lungs
explode
Shards of words of a shattered
voice
And there's still a hole where the phone
was thrown

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
ah...
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah...

The
moon is rising, a revolution
I close my eyes
and the room is spinning
You're
screaming:

"Sweetie, the moon has raped me
--
It has left its seeds like a tomb inside
me
So I must learn to abort these
feelings
This romance is
bleeding..."

Night time triggers the land
mines
Bedroom wounds -- lovers like
brigadiers
Marching two by two...
Marching
two by two...
A soldier's down
Flood gates
burst
I've said some things I wish you'd never
heard
Like, "There's still a hole where the
phone was thrown."
It's growing as we
speak
And it's sucking us both in
A vacuum
of sorrow to swallow up the day
