There in the dark it's the only abuse Walking frail to the guardian light There in the dark where the road is a fuse Strain my ears for an old man's wise And he said Will you be a light for me To seduce to elude to grin? Will you be a light for me Walking in for a holy sin? There in the dark it's the only abuse That I can't get out of his sight There in the dark it's the only abuse When the frail old man he smiles And he says Will you be a bride for me On your knees for a second run? Will you shoot the sky for me Stealing streetlight just for fun? I cannot see your sun so far away I cannot be four lightyears far away I cannot see your sky so far away I cannot see your light another day I cannot see your sun so far away I cannot be four lightyears far away I cannot see your sky so far away I cannot see your light another day There in the dark, ten years older and wise Still there's a frail, frail guardian light There in the dark, back to preach of the night See the face of the old man is mine Gaze of the old man is mine
