Where once was daylight; shadow
Where once was I; you.**

Will I live my whole life kissing the air?
Embracing the fires of daylight,
longing for the shadows
of the cold night?

Will I live my whole life waiting
for hell and the streets
to lift; to be wiped;
by night's caress?

Will I live my whole life
watching the cars
take cover under
their shadows?

Will I see the night;
or will I gasp for air,
and die?
