Allegory simplified
Something you could miss
I am born into the night
Given little wits
Underneath the velvet light
Softer than a throne
Throw it up and watch it fall
Whatchu coulda known
Underneath a candlelight
Given little hope
Even in the hardest of hearts
Something you could know
Wrap 'em up in little lies
And burn 'em till they're gone
Underneath that candlelight
Watch 'em till they grow
Covered in the sand of time
We could have a ball
We could have a brawl
Someone who could last
Someone who can laugh
Someone you could love
And someone you could ha-a-a-ave
Your hide, it won't protect you from the demons inside
Your hide, it won't protect you from the sun that's so high
We go, we take to the breeze
And we go as we please
I am born into the night
Diamonds in disguise
Diamonds in the sky
Covered in the sand of time
We could have a ball
We could have a brawl
Underneath a candle light
How could this have grown?
How could this have grown?
Someone who could last
Someone who can laugh
Someone you could love
And someone you could ha-a-a-ave
Your hide, it won't protect you from the demons inside
