Icy shivers down my spine
Just crawled out of a bottle of wine
It's a long, long time until the dawn
Things that crawl and things that bite
My thoughts as black as the sky tonight
It's a long, long time until the dawn
Hold your breath, nobody speak
Just don't stand on the step that creaks
It's a long, long time until the dawn
In the dead of night the city sleeps
The water's still and dark and deep
It's a long, long time until the dawn
