Ataris - Welcome The Night lyrics

Can we understand life And live it at the same time Where is this purpose you speak of? I'll be the background of this photograph The soundtrack to this night And we are fading out, before our eyes Close your eyes and welcome in the night Close your eyes and welcome in the night In heaven so wonderful Why are we oh so afraid of dying young We are dying young We are the patterns and the shapes The patchwork from the window on this place We are alone, alone, alone Close your eyes and welcome in the night Close your eyes and welcome in the night This television set, it burns my eyes And there is no one here That can keep me warm tonight Where is this purpose Where is the lie, the lie, the lie Close your eyes and welcome in the night Close your eyes and welcome in the night
