I feel you trying,
though in my heart I know you're lying
And though your love for me is dying,
I see you crying

It's the pain of your secret heart
bringing you to tears, filling you with fears
for your mind and for your soul

I touch you softly now,
born on by hope until the end, somehow
I am a man and I must keep my vows,
I must go on

But the wall of your secret heart
keeps my distance clear, helps my footsteps fall
back in line inside my mind

What's the use? You turned me loose
and left me here to cry
Where's the love we talked about?
Where's my sunny sky?
Secret hearts and sorry tales
will never help love grow
Spread your wings my darkened soul,
the time has come to go
I will not be hurried down
or blackened by you lies
I must go and find my dreams
and live in paradise

(Repeat and fade)

What do you think I am? Do you think I'm dreaming?
Don't you know I know what it is you're schemeing?
Who did you think gave you the right,
hidden by the dead of night,
to take the world and turn it upside down,
when it should be round?

It seems I made it just in time
to use my reason and my rhyme
to save us from the evils of your mind

I will cast the spell, be sure I cast it well
I will light a fire, kindled with desire
I'll fill you with fear so you'll know I'm here
and I won't be treated like a fool
Stop what you're pretending, there'll be no happy ending
I'm alive and darkness is my tool

But when the night is over,
and daytime steals your cover,
the goodness of the morning sun
will wear away what you have done
and leave you cold

I have no need for moonlight
You're wrong to trust in sunlight
For I exist, not just in storms,
but in life itself, in so many forms
to leave you cold

I will leave you now, but you wont defeat me
You had best beware when you come to meet me
Love and truth will follow me,
an army of reality,
brought from every corner of the world

You will never break the spell
I summon all the fires of hell
and this is my advice for what it's worth:

Let us not begin this fight we cannot win
Be sure you're watching me
Cause all through your life,
every day and every night
