Sitting in a graveyard
Smoking cigarettes
Talking to the tombstones
And reading their regrets
Some people to relate to
And so it goes around
You dance and sing and greet them
And you're still hanging round
Echoes in the hallway
Voices in your head
You can't get off the freeway
And you can't get out of bed
You left the baby crying
On the kitchen floor
You left the water running
So you can't hear no more
So sure of the magic
Anything you say
The shadows in the twilight
The dead will have their day
So sure of the moonlight
And the dying sun
The shadows in the twilight
And your day has begun
There's a full moon in broad daylight
Too early for the sky
Let this be a lesson
If you start to wonder why
And the necissary angels
Are punching out at 5
They're finished with the day shift
While you are still alive
So sure of the magic
Anything you say
The shadows in the twilight
The dead will have their day
So sure of the moonlight
And the dying sun
The shadows in the twilight
And your day has begun
Well January's coming
And you're snowed in for good
And you never should have done it
But you did the best you could
And now you say it don't matter
That you're standing last in line
Well all your dreams are shattered
And you're running out of time
Twilight is upon you
It's too late to be afraid
Nightfall, it will find you
And the shadows all will fade
And the Devil's just a shadow
Of the things you didn't do
Of the riddles, jokes, and cobwebs
Tangled up in you
So sure of the magic
Anything you say
The shadows in the twilight
The dead will have their day
So sure of the moonlight
And the dying sun
The shadows in the twilight
And your day has begun
