Under starlight shining white I want to scream alone tonight The shadows talk of childish things That lay around my careful home
Conversation stops dead in the dead of the day Not quite sure if I like it that way No more rumours around town now Check on the time it hasn't changed Tables and chairs are still arranged I try to think of past events A childhood love that was heaven sent But it's not
Face contorts a rubber mask But I'm well matched up to the farce The windows allow a cruel blue light I close my eyes, the light's too bright
Phone doesn't ring, no intrusion from outside Wall paper shapes just a bit too bold Turn away from the wall now Check on the time it hasn't changed Tables and chairs are still arranged I try to think of past events A childhood love that was heaven sent But it's not
Under starlight shining white I want to scream alone tonight The shadows talk of childish things that are done for
My face bends like a rubber mask I believe I'm well matched up to the farce But the lights in my eyes are cruel and blue That will do me
Don't look out or beyond Calm in this my traitor's death Cold and empty like the bells Now there's nothing left to sell That will do me
