Nights in Black Lyrics

How deep does the darkness go
How much can I take
I know I’ll never know
As I lie here awake and say

How much longer
How many times
Nights in black with my open eyes
And when it ends
Will it begin again
As the years keep on running by

The mystery is all in my mind
Locked from the inside

How long will the minute last
How long ‘till it’s done
Still time goes creeping past
As I wait for the sun to come

How much longer
How many times
Nights in black with my open eyes
And when it ends
Will it begin again
As the years keep on running by

The mystery is all in my mind
And the answer’s not hard to find

Now in the distance
I can see a light
Watch it rise up into the sky
And I swear I’ll chase it
Chase it every night
As the years
As the years keep on running by
