Gracie Lee Stevens - The Long Night

[Verse 1] The sky is a bruise The stars have fled Shadows crawl where the moon once bled The air tastes heavy Thick with regret A silent scream A debt not met [Chorus] The long night It swallows me whole No light No fire Just a broken soul The long night Where the lost hearts go Round and round But we never know [Verse 2] Footsteps vanish in the dirt Erased A clock that ticks but keeps no pace The wolves are howling Or is it me Caged by time I can't break free [Prechorus] Echoes whisper Truth or lies A thousand eyes in the darkened skies [Chorus] The long night It swallows me whole No light No fire Just a broken soul The long night Where the lost hearts go Round and round But we never know [Bridge] I could run But the night runs faster A cruel design A slow disaster Every turn just leads me back To the cold embrace of the endless black [Chorus] The long night It swallows me whole No light No fire Just a broken soul The long night Where the lost hearts go Round and round But we never know
