Lyrics

Melt Into The Night

[Verse 1]

I created the cure

The answer in a tube

I'm running out of time

I'll make the world news

The answer was right there

Growing in the lawn

Got to get to the lab

Get there before dawn

[Verse 2]

Driving in the rain

Car sliding on the ice

Rolling over [?]

My arms to my face

Sitting upside down

I'm trapped in my seat

White figures in the dark

Gather at my feet

[Chorus]

They take my precious cargo

Running from the lights

Wrapped up in a coat

They melt into the night

Time moves in slow motion

Spinning 'round and 'round

Lose control of everything

No sight, no touch, no sound

[Outro]

Lifted from the scene

My gift to the world

Forever gone and lost

It must be death's herald
