I woke up with a scream in my throat Something evil I saw then I choked Never thought I would dream of LaVey And never see the light of day
Then the dawn reeked of swine like a slut I'm in bed as the light got so dim And the globe of ascent turned to suet A new night came rolling in New night came rolling in
When you come I greet you, we are the same And we make love in the dark You can hide, I see you, the night's alive, I know To survive, I need you and you need me
Cruel and corrupt, please make it stop I should be fast asleep but I'm still up Nowhere to run, I know it has begun I'm not sure I'll see tomorrow's sun
I ride the mare to hell and back In this madness I sweat and burn Every night I'm sleepless, every hour a spell Every minute a lost life, a year in hell
Cruel and corrupt, please make it stop I should be fast asleep but I'm still up Nowhere to run, I know it has begun I'm not sure I'll see tomorrow's sun
Yes, the day is the czar of the night And the moon is the sun's other side So the night is the scar of the day And the shit won't go away The shit won't go away
When you come I greet you, we are the same And we make love in the dark You can hide, I see you, the night's alive, I know To survive, I need you and you need me
Cruel and corrupt, please make it stop I should be fast asleep but I'm still up Nowhere to run, I know it has begun I'm not sure I'll see tomorrow's sun
Sometimes long and wonderful Sometimes cool and full of soul Sometimes crude and grim and foul The day is warm, the night is cold
Lost in the dark, I'm lost in the dark Lost in the dark, I'm lost in the dark Lost in the dark
