Since the day She was gone Started dressing in black Started going out at midnight Like a comic book character There's a child behind the window You can see that he's looking for salvation There I step into the spotlight Like a sandman or just a clown And everybody's talking And everybody knows in town but me At last I see an open door But hide away Well I feel like a murderer But it's quiet and dark and lonely here The only ghost that haunts me Is my love gone by And everybody's staring But everybody's eyes look at the floor A black spot in a dark night I'll disappear And everybody's moving But everybody's arms and legs are still The sounds of rain fills everything My soul is dying Like a candle in the dark
