I'm condemned to the long endless night And I live in the absence of light And my shadow has a life of its own watching you while you sleep all alone When the night is all cool skine and bones and you lie wrapped in sheets on your own There's a ring on your dead telephone don't be scared when there's nobody home Like a spider web kiss on your face that familiar smell just a trace that's my scent that I left on your lace so you're never alone no you're never alone I'm condemned to the long endless night And I live in the absence of light
