You should sleep, you can't sleep
You feel alone, besides you're all alone
But don't pout, you're not the only one
Lots of people are alone
The streets are full of aching souls
And at parties we dance up against a stranger
And in our chests we feel the blood in our veins beat stronger
Come forget your name in the dark beneath the artificial moon
Come curl up in the shadow where the light's most beautiful
Where the skin of the dancing stranger is so real
That it makes you touch the sky
What do we have once night has fallen
What's happening in our hearts, in our damaged hearts
What do we have once night has fallen
What's happening in our hearts, in our damaged hearts
You'd like to tell them but you can't tell them
You wish he'd hold you tight and keep dancing far from your silence
In this trance night
It's brushing against others that can heal you
Before daybreak, if only it could make you deaf
And blur the outlines of your distress
Shed S.O.S, substitute for caresses
Loneliness in a club is less heavy
Let the tears flow, it's allowed under the artificial moon
Let the salt blend with other salts
It's the dancing stranger's skin that makes you real
For an endless second
What do we have once night has fallen
What's happening in our hearts, in our damaged hearts
What do we have once night has fallen
What's happening in our hearts, in our damaged hearts
To change skin, change name, wash it all all all away
To change skin, change name, wash it all all all away
What do we have once night has fallen
What's happening in our hearts, in our damaged hearts
What do we have once night has fallen
What's happening in our hearts, in our damaged hearts
