lyrics
Make a joke and no one laughs
Cringe in the corner for days
Hide your shame at the bottom of the trash
Can't wait for the men to come and take it away
It's a small world when you try to hide
And I don't want to know how you keep yourself alive
Because I don't judge and I don't ask
I hold our thin happiness in my tight grasp because I know...
The night has no eyes
And I could be whatever you need
The night has no eyes
You could see anything in me you want to see
We could turn on the lights and watch it all fall apart
But it all seems so much clearer when we're in the dark
So go ahead and take me by surprise
Because your day's not for me
The sun is dead and the moon is out
The poor can dance in their graves
And now that they've sent us all to hell
Maybe those damn kids will finally behave
It's a small world for narrow minds
I don't know how they live with all so well defined
Because I don't judge and I don't ask
I hold our thin happiness in my tight grasp because I know....
The night has no eyes
And I could be whatever you need
The night has no eyes
You could see anything in me you want to see
We could turn on the lights and watch it all fall apart
But it all seems so much clearer when we're in the dark
So go ahead and take me by surprise
Because your day's not for me

The depth of the songs and sonics is profound, throughout this. I happened to run into Chris in Vermont and he humbly didn't mention what he'd been up to. Extremely happy I went on my own and found this brand new release; a GEM. David Fenichel
