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
_____
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
