Holding To The Edge Of Night

What's that silence inside me that expands into the dark?
With traffic lights all changing for no one anymore
The karaoke laughter, tumbling out the door
My eyes well with contemplation of the pleasures I endure

Holding to the edge of night
Holding to the edge of night
Holding to the edge of night

My deepest true desires interrupted with the dawn
A bar tab, a parking ticket pull me back down from beyond
I have searched for her in morning, but she's quiet and austere
And as the Moon floats above her, she unfastens all the fear

And I keep holding to the edge of night
Holding to the edge of night
Holding to the edge of night
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

The smell of pine through the air vents, I know it's there during the day
But as the Sun sets around me, it strips the other scents away
I am a legend of this land here, I am a keeper of this life
So when I die, however that is, I'll just say evening was my prize

And I keep holding to the edge of night
Holding to the edge of night
Holding to the edge of night
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
