Its not that I don't have light
Lamps and candles and lanterns and flashlights
And suns that only ever set
Its not that I don't have light
Its just sometimes I feel much better
In the darkness

So let night be my home
Let these creatures roam
Caught in a gloaming
Red eyed mouth foaming
Because all I know
With someone I'm all alone

Lamps need outlets
Candles drip their wax and lose their flame
Lanterns without oil can't create shadows
Flashlight with dying batteries
And the sun

The sun is going to set
