Baby in the dead of night When my head's going round and burning Things that fill the heart with dread Messing up my bed I'm tossing, turning Eyes that bore a hole through X-ray proof walls Staring through the pit of my soul Once I saw an insane man break his teeth Trying to chew through iron bars In the dark of 2 a.m When I see you there Breathing easily Breathe that angels breath on me Breathe away the fear So I sleep peacefully Innocence will always be the only true moral alibi But I should never try to protect you From being aware of our crimes And when the night turns to day Dark turns to gray It finds me Alone with those memories Night turns to day Dark turns to grey And leaves me Tired and cold again Must it always be That we of necessity Acquire understanding And with that knowledge Must we gain All the mental pain Of comprehension? The man stood only inches from my face Intelligence sparked in his eyes His gums a mute and bleeding mess of teeth The people who were with me laughed till they cried Night turns to day Dark turns to grey It finds me Alone with those memories Night turns to day Dark turns to grey And leaves me Tired and cold again Must it always be That we of necessity Acquire understanding And with that knowledge Must we gain All the mental pain Of comprehension? The man stood only inches from my face Intelligence sparked in his eyes His gums a mute and bleeding mess of teeth The people who were with me laughed till they cried I never think that there's any of this will touch you But baby your mummy and daddy are praying That this world we leave will turn out good for you...
