they're all sleeping around me
and my eyes are wide open
and i see darkness in me
tearing sleep from my eyes

there's a silance within me
as i'm punching the numbers
and i wait, and it's ringing
then somebody pickes up

and to turn on the lights
just for me, on my own
is such a hard decision
as i put down the phone

because while darkness confuses
and makes you jump at the sounds
also it sometimes soothes
your fears at the dawn
