Everything is beautiful
As long as it’s dark

I want to stay in the night
And never see things in detail
Because nothing is so perfect
Without a shadow covering it up

And this life is just a cigarette
Being inhaled by everyone here
And it’s burning away
Slowly

There are no lies at night
Because no one can tell
Because no one wants to bother
Because no one is thinking clearly

An existence lived in the night
Is an existence in imagination
Pick and choose the moments to keep

Just remember
It’s impossible to stay
And everything loses its glamour
Without hiding what it really is

And it’s much harder to lie to yourself
When you can see everything clearly
