What's that silence inside me, that expands into the dark? With traffic lights all changing for no one anymore The karaoke laughter, tumbling out the door My eyes well with contemplation of the pleasures I endure Holding to the edge of night Holding to the edge of night Holding to the edge of night My deepest true desires, interrupted with the dawn A bar tab, a parking ticket, pull me back down from beyond I have searched for her in morning, but she's quiet and austere And as the moon floats above her, she unfastens all the fear And I keep holding to the edge of night Holding to the edge of night Holding to the edge of night Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da The smell of pine through the air vents, I know it's there during the day But as the sun sets around me, it strips the other scents away I am a legend of this land here, I am a keeper of this life So when I die, however that is, I'll just say evening was my prize And I keep holding to the edge of night Holding to the edge of night Holding to the edge of night Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
