Tijdens de dag maakt niets wat uit Het is de tijd 's nachts die flateert Tijdens de nacht, geen beheersing Er breekt iets door de muur heen Je draagt wit terwijl je loopt Over de straat van mijn ziel Jij neemt mijn zelf, jij neemt mijn zelfbeheersing weg Jij maakt dat ik slechts leef voor de nacht Voordat de morgen komt, is het verhaal verteld Jij neemt mijn zelf, jij neemt mijn zelfbeheersing weg Een zoveelste nacht, een zoveelste dag gaat voorbij Ik houd mezelf nooit tegen om me af te vragen waarom Jij helpt me om te vergeten mijn rol te spelen Jij neemt mijn zelf, jij neemt mijn zelfbeheersing weg Ik, ik leef tussen de wezens van de nacht Ik heb niet de wilskracht om te proberen te vechten Tegen een nieuwe morgen Dus ik zal maar gewoon geloven Dat morgen nooit komt Een veilige nacht, ik leef in het woud van mijn dromen Ik weet dat de nacht niet is zoals 'ie lijkt Ik moet in iets geloven, dus ik laat mezelf Er in geloven Dat deze nacht nooit zal verdwijnen Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh, de nacht is mijn wereld Stadslicht, beschilderd meisje Tijdens de dag maakt niets wat uit Het is de tijd 's nachts die flateert Ik, ik leef tussen de wezens van de nacht Ik heb niet de wilskracht om te proberen te vechten Tegen een nieuwe morgen Dus ik zal maar gewoon geloven Dat morgen het nooit weet Een veilige nacht, ik leef in het woud van dromen Ik weet dat de nacht niet is zoals 'ie lijkt Ik moet in iets geloven, dus ik laat mezelf Er in geloven Dat deze nacht nooit zal verdwijnen Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh,
