The stars will lead
The words in song
Of tales and trees
Old wives, forgot
The sign reads
Don't tease the dark
Or the dead night beasts
Will open up
To the old place right at midnight
Where his love lays, where his hope lies
He starts to pray
And sails away
To the old place right at midnight
Where his bones sit, where his love dies
He starts to change
He starts to change
Stop me, I'll stab you
You'll love me, I dare you
It's fine to be crowned
A tall cornered hound
So hate me, I'll hate you
You'll burn me, it's easy
Don't pull me around
I'm wrong in this crowd
Stay far from me
The wolves are near
I'd hate to catch
Your scent of fear
They call in dreams
They call for dreams
Don't shine a light
Don't cause a scene
To the old place right at midnight
Where his love lays, where his hope lies
He starts to pray
And sails away
To the old place right at midnight
Where his bones sit, where his love dies
He starts to change
He starts to change
Stop me, I'll stab you
You'll love me, I dare you
It's fine to be crowned
A tall cornered hound
Time will break
The bonds we trust
And I will take
What's left of us
Embrace the flame
We called our prey
We called the name
And got astray
These poor things
They're all the same
They feed our pain
They call me chain
To the old place right at midnight
Where his love lays, where his hope lies
He starts to pray
And sails away
Time will break
The bonds we trust
And I will take
What's left of us
To the old place right at midnight
Where his love lays, where his hope lies
To the old place right at midnight
Where his bones sit, where his love dies
