[Verse] In the midnight gutter where shadows creep The cans they rattle while the city sleeps A raccoon glides like a secret spy A patriot's oath beneath the streaking sky [Verse 2] His mask of black hides a weary soul Through shattered streets where the dark takes toll A whiskey moon lights his daring raid He’s the last fox with a debt unpaid [Chorus] The darkest night ain’t the one you dread A raccoon takes the trash to bed Freedom claws where the weak once bled The last outlaw where no tears are shed [Verse 3] His tail’s a banner his gaze is steel A rusted world tries to make him kneel But he prowls alone down the coldest street With a mission burning and a dream to meet [Bridge] A henhouse of liars but he slinks inside Pickin' out truths they tried to hide Through the broken glass and the alley stones He wields the night like it’s his throne [Chorus] The darkest night ain’t the one you dread A raccoon takes the trash to bed Freedom claws where the weak once bled The last outlaw where no tears are shed
