Into the Night

[Verse 1]

If I was a fly

And I had a day left ‘til I die

I would lay down 'til tomorrow

You're clipping my wings

I try to win you back

With all my words that you know mean nothing

[Pre-Chorus 1]

You could have believed in me

You could have believed in me

[Chorus 1]

And I saw a tear on a rose

And I swept it off for you

As I gag on my guts

'Cause I'm watching you give up

I'm a tear in the clock

As you walk away, I can almost taste the glaze

On your lips smacking away

Into the night

[Verse 2]

They say, at least he's my friend

And he'll treat you kindly in the end

Call me bitter but I'm

Brimming with hate for both of you

A film is playing in my head

Of you fornicating in his bed

The satin sheets are ruby red

Like your nails that scarred my back, and

[Pre-Chorus 2]

You could have believed in me, baby

You could have believed in me

[Chorus 2]

And I saw a tear on a rose

So I clipped it off for you

I'm a fly on a wall

And I'm watching you give up

I'm a tear in the clock

As you walk away, I can almost see a shade

Of your blue eyes fading away

Into the night

[Pre-Chorus 3]

You never believed in me

But I will believe in me

[Chorus 3]

Now I take a match to the rose

That I gave, my love, to you

Won't forgive, won't forget

And the rage will lift me up

Hope you choke on his tongue

As I walk away, I will not watch his hands

As they deftly pull you away

Into the night

Into the night, oh...
