Rrest

Face down in the gutter with the stars upon my back
Moonglow presses heavy, the night holds me in black

I'll see you in my dreams
I will escape you in my sleep
The night-time is my friend it is the day in which I weep

Switch off the phone, ignore the door
this hour has no voice or face I need
Shut the windows and bring the curtains together
there could be a world outside but I don't remember

No crying help
Cobwebs unblown
There is no break or timeout, no

This is an end
It's what I need
I'm losing you by losing me
