Boogie Man Lyrics - Together/apart - Grieves

The night is like a blanket that's suffocating the fire 

With a bow to the string and a note from the choir 

I believe, and that's about as far as it goes 

When you've been riding on the wings of a bloody murder of crows 

Hold it all out, throw it into the wind 

Let it lay down the line where the drama begins 

Because if everything is covered and teetering on a whim 

You can harmonize the sound of it's insecurity's hymn 

When it's played, yeah, stripped down and shaved 

Shipped off to battle in the shadow of the day 

And if anything is salvaged from the battered up remains 

You can sew it to your jacket and compensate for the pain 

When it hits, when it speaks 

Lick the blood right off of it's teeth 

You'll grip those sheets in attempt to hide 

And figure out that you've been running from the feeling of never leaving alive so

Hide, sleep with the lights on 

You feel like you can be at peace with the lights on here 

So cover up your face, and fight away that taste 

That makes you want to run and hide, hide, hide 

And sleep with the lights on 

You stand up on your tiny feet when the night's gone here (Night's gone here) 

When the night's gone here 

Swallow that lump inside of your throat 

Open up the closet and push aside all the clothes 

You believe, and never needed more to be said 

To leave you scared of that little gap between the floor and your bed 

So you jump, leaping over all of your options 

And retreat right back to that bed we call a coffin 

To sleep, never actually getting a wink 

Due to all the little devils that dance around in your dreams 

And attack you, pull you under the bed with their hands 

And take away the chance of you ever making a stand 

And if anything actually ever went as you planned 

That you could retrace the steps that you ran 

But only if it hits, if it speaks 

You could fight it to the death in the streets 

You'll grip those sheets in attempt to hide 

And figure out that you've been running from the feeling of never leaving alive

So hide, you'll stay awake 

So hide, we all know that you will stay awake 

Hide, sleep with the lights on 

You feel like you can be at peace with the lights on here 

So cover up your face, and fight away that taste 

That makes you want to run and hide, hide, hide 

And sleep with the lights on 

You stand up on your tiny feet when the night's gone here (Night's gone here) 

When the night's gone here
