Night Vision

Dark shadows dancing on the wall Dark footsteps coming down the hall Dark music playing in the rain Dark thoughts are playing in my brain Atmosphere charged up with electrons Splash rivers of mightiness die Thunderstorm is like the drummers of Hades Shake my windows And rattle my mind Night fever soakin' on my sheets Light-headed headed for the streets The ground is floating off my feet Night coming turning up the heat Streets are deep with black waters in the midnight Cars move slow makin' waves as they pass Biggest men like insects on the pavement Scurry past ... there's a watch to reply Tick-tock the clock upon the mantle Third hand burns the seconds away I can't remember the meaning of this moment I can't remember what I wanted to say Dark shadows dancing on the wall Dark footsteps coming down the hall Dark music playing in the rain Dark thoughts are plaguing me again (Colin Carter)
