[Verse 1]

Come into this night, here we'll be gone

So far away from our weak and crumbling lives

Come into this night, when days are done

Lost and astray in what's vanished from your eyes


[Refrain]

What came and distorted your sight

Saw you benighted by your fright


[Verse 2]

Come into this night, your plight alone

Carry your weight, you are flawed as all of us

Come into this night, your only home

It's never too late to repent, suffer the loss


[Refrain]

What came and distorted your sight

Saw you benighted by your fright


[Instrumental Break]


[Refrain]

What came and distorted your sight

Saw you benighted by your fright


[Verse 3]

Come into this night when you're able

To undo your deeds and atone with your lonely soul

Once you're into this night, all minds are stable

Forget all your needs, lose the grip of all control
