Melt Into The Night

(album: Quaker City Quiet Pills - 2023)

I've created the cure
The answer in a tube
Running out of time
I'll make the world news

The answer was right there
Growing in the light
Gotta get to the lab
Get there before dawn

Driving in the rain
Car sliding on the ice
Rolling over grass
My arms to my face

Sitting upside down
I'm trapped in my seat
White figures in the dark
Gather at my feet

They take my precious cargo
Running from the lights
Wrapped up in a coat
They melt into the night

Time moves in slow motion
Speeding round 'n round
Lose control of everything
No sight, no touch, no sound

Lifted from the scene
My gift to the world
Forever gone and lost
It must be death's herald
