MY NIGHTS ARE BLACK AND BLUE

i'm joyous in the sunshine
with the warmth upon my face
but when the moonlight hits me
it becomes a different place

the twilight leaves me anxious
like a train that's over due
my days are filled with colors
but my nights are black and blue

the days are so exciting
like a boisterous parade
the night is like a death march
that is sinister in shade

i find my mind divided
when the light divides in two
my days are filled with colors
but my nights are black and blue

the days are rich and sparkling
like the sunshine on the sand
but shadows stretch out toward me
and i'm taken to a land

where things are hiding in the dark
and hope to pull you through
my days are filled with colors
but my nights are black and blue

God paints the morning brightly
in a million different hues
the devil paints the evening
with the colors of a bruise

i ache to see the sunrise
and be washed by morning dew
my days are filled with colors
but my nights are black and blue
