Under the curtain of rainfall

  The curtain of night

  When all is quiet

  The sun bright

  The other side of the world

  In radiant glow

  On our side though...

  Darkness it knows

  Is the moon high up in the sky

  Higher than any planes will fly

  Only to be reached by a few who sigh

  Of days when so far they could fly

  The curtain of our eyes close down

  Our sleep comes closer and into slumber we drown

  Traped by our own delusions

  Eluded by our own conclusions

  Is it a fear you have from younger days

  Regrets which still stay

  A sense of loneliness you can't keep at bay

  You better stay awake...

  But you can't!

  You'll fall asleep eventually

  But you prance!

  In your own simple way

  You'll lose!

  Yourself!

  You'll fall into trance with no one else!

  Alone!

  So alone!

  The dome of sleep

  Calls you home!

  Fall asleep,

  Roll the dice

  Fear your inner darkness

  Festering like lice!

  Just...

  Roll...

  The...

  Dice

  Die
