There is a place,
in the corner of your eye,
in the shadow of a corner,
I only know now,
It's a place with no honour.

Where are you safe from the shadows?
the night,
where are you safe from the night?
the shade,
these places make the shadows jump in fright.

So we are the Night Shades,
those vibrant flowers,
we will protect you when there's no light,
we will poison the shadows,
alone we will still fight.

When I was a boy,
I was scared of the dark,
the deep endless black,
I am a Night Shade,
isn't it time the dark was scared back?
