In The Dark Of Night

from The Creator by Thomas Christ

/

lyrics

I light my candles but I never pray
I'm just searching for the words to say
In the absence of the light of day
And it doesn't matter anyway
Exactly who are you to judge
Can't imagine anyone would begrudge
I stay awake with the slime and the sludge
The flamelight dances on these words so smudged

I write my songs in the dark of night
Don't know if this is good or right
Makin' music in the middle of the night
And it's alright, alright

I feel the rhythms that you hear in the dark
When you see your creativity spark
Brightens the air like an electric arc
With the magic that will leave its mark
So if you're nocturnal creatures too
And you tap into this mystical brew
When the sun is gone and day is through
You know precisely what you must do

I write my songs in the dark of night
Don't know if this is good or right
Makin' music in the middle of the night
And it's alright, alright

And when you're not blinded by the sunshine
At the at the hour of noon
You could be dressed in black, drinking blood red wine
By the light of the moon
And when you're not distracted by the colors
You can see every shade of grey
Cause when the whole world's tucked in sleeping
Won't hear the nonsense they say

I write my songs in the dark of night
Don't know if this is good or right
Makin' music in the middle of the night
And it's alright, alright
I write my songs in the dark of night
Don't know if this is good or right
Makin' music in the middle of the night
And it's alright, alright
