And were you always waiting
At the bottom of the stairs
Head in hands anticipating
The hangman's break
Could you see it coming
Shuffling round the bend
Can you see it falling
Swinging till the end
So, shoot out the lights
Turn off your phone
Go to sleep now
Shoot out the lights
Turn off your phone
Go to sleep now
And were you always dreaming
A night as dark as this
With cherry blossom falling
Make a pillow for your rest
And can you see them waiting
By the grey-green divide
Looks like they're here to guide you
Through the hangman's break
So shoot out the lights
Turn off your phone
Go to sleep now
Shoot out the lights
Turn off your phone
Go to sleep now
The hangman's break
