[Verse 1] The digital clock is bleeding red; it’s 4:00 AM again Sebastian watches David sleep, counting down to ten He runs a pale hand through the gold of David’s messy hair Knowing the sun is waking up, bringing his despair David belongs to the morning rush, to the warmth of the golden skies While Sebastian is trapped in the velvet dark (so alone) where the lonely night-bird cries The countdown begins at the edge of the bed The cruelest thoughts running through Sebastian's head Two different worlds, but a single heartbeat Where the sun and the shadow are forced to meet We are lovers by night, but divided by daylight! Shattered apart by the incoming grey light David, you walk where the noon sun burns While I am in darkness, just waiting and yearning We scream at the clock, but the minutes won't stay Holding you close... as we run out of time (nooooo) The alarm clock rings, David wakes, The sky is turning pale He looks into Sebastian's eyes, a tragic, silent veil (i love you) David must step out into the crowd, the city's heavy hum Live a normal human life until the night has come He carries the scent of the ancient dark on his jacket and his skin Wishing the hours would hurry up and let the night back in The countdown is over, the city awakes Sebastian retreats as the golden beam breaks A glass barrier that cannot be broken through I’m a creature of shadow, just longing for you We are lovers by night, but divided by daylight! Shattered apart by the incoming grey light David, you walk where the noon sun is burning While I am in darkness, just waiting and yearning We scream at the clock, but the minutes won't stay Holding you close... as we run out of time. Why must the universe keep us apart? Putting a curse on a desperate heart? David cries out to the relentless sun: "Why can't we be together as one?!" Twelve hours is a lifetime to wait When you're fighting against an impossible fate! We are lovers by night, but divided by daylight! Shattered apart by the incoming grey light David walks where the noon sun is burning While Sebastian's in darkness, just waiting and yearning We scream at the clock, but the minutes won't stay Holding you close... as we run out of time! The heavy curtains close. The city stirs outside. Go walk in the sun, David... I'll be waiting in the shadows. Divided by daylight. Until the moon returns.
