The Night Keeps Falling Into the Stars... (Feeling Down)

The night keeps falling into the stars And the dampness drags on the grass Somewhere there is music and laughter False and foreign, they falter I wish to look nowhere Casting my eyes adrift To throw out all worldly cares, With no memories to sift Ask me to lay my life to waste To do nothing in haste Send away all the familiar faces. Go back two or three paces Until I can believe again Let my soul just be a stain Or another sad song's refrain. Let me be alone in the rain When the heaviness in my heart Tips the scale in too much pain I'll brave myself to pull out the dart, And watch the month's moon wane.
