This is one of those nights
This is one of those nights
When the dark is nigh
And I close my eyes
Though I wish I could stay awake
They are already near
Any second they're here
And they'll tug me down
To the place where the lost souls crave
To find a way back home
Oh the fear of that empty sound
All the silence just wandering around
And the horses were running still
As the earth was falling beneath their feet
And I lay down my head
I lay down my head
And the dawn's miles away
And I'm bound to stay in the place
Where the hollow hearts weep
I don't want to go there
I don't want to go there
But they'll haunt me down
Without a sound and they make me all numb
All numb
Oh the fear of that empty sound
All the silence just wondering around
And the horses were running still
As the earth was falling beneath their feet
