[Verse 1] The house is still The world is gone to sleep But there's a conversation My mind insists on keeping The clock moves on the room is still I hear the rain against the glass My body rests against its will While every thought rewinds the past I hear the words i should have said And all the ones i can't take back They circle slowly through my head Like footsteps on an empty track Nobody knows what silence brings When all the noise of living ends The mind remembers everything And starts the arguments again [Chorus] Nocturnal when the world is sleeping I'm wide awake with yesterday Nocturnal all these thoughts i'm keeping Won't let the hours slip away Nocturnal there's a war inside me Between the truth and what i fear Nocturnal nowhere left to hide me From everything i wouldn't hear [Verse 2] I think about the ones i've lost The years i never thought would end The price of pride the hidden cost Of words that broke a faithful friend I wonder who i'd be today If i had made a different choice But morning cannot change the way The darkness gives those doubts a voice Nobody sees the things we face When every door is locked up tight We wear a smiling crowded places Then meet ourselves alone at night [Chorus] Nocturnal when the world is sleeping I'm wide awake with yesterday Nocturnal all these thoughts i'm keeping Won't let the hours slip away Nocturnal there's a war inside me Between the truth and what i fear Nocturnal nowhere left to hide me From everything i wouldn't hear [Verse 3] I've spent too many nights in fear Reliving things i cannot change But something finally becomes clear My past is mine to rearrange [Outro] Nocturnal when the world is sleeping I face the things i pushed away Nocturnal no more secrets keeping I'll meet the morning unafraid Nocturnal the past won't bind me I made my peace with yesterday Nocturnal the night may find me But it won't take my strength away The night still comes The memories remain But they don't own me anymore
