Living in the darkness*
What a cold and lonely night
Voices in the darkness
Sing a sweet sweet lullaby
Something's coming nearer
Anyone to join in game? A game
Welcome to the attic
Hospitality is my name
Eyes so alive
I've been feeling pretty dead
For quite a while
Gimme a smile
Dead-and-alive
Come a little closer
You and I:
Affiliates forevermore and I'm alive
Death is just a feeling
You and I swapping finitude
And love for diamonds
I'm just a little pale
Don't hesitate to sign right here
Don't be afraid to come with me
Specialized in temporizing
Dead to faulty love and time
Faulty time
We'll be dancing right here
Forever and a while
Day by day
Dead-and-alive
Come a little closer
You and I:
Affiliates forevermore and I'm alive
Death is just a feeling
You and I swapping finitude
And love for diamonds
Value by value
I'm gonna turn into breath after breath
Love we trade in for silver
Defy what they use to call death
And dust covered treasures will shine again
An unseen accolade
Larger than life, a memory
Death will be just a charade
Dead-and-alive
Come a little closer
You and I:
Affiliates forevermore and I'm alive
Death is just a feeling
You and I swapping finitude
And love for diamonds
I'm just a little pale
