This is about the rest of us, the ones you left behind
We had no notion of all your wicked crimes
We are the ones you told your kids of before you went to sleep
What you didn't say was how you thought we were weak
And then come to me in the dead of night
And I convince myself it'll be alright
And when you hold me close as the night unfolds
And I convince myself how we'll grow old
And when you come to me in the dead of night
And I convince myself it'll be alright
I used to sit alone and watch your cities rise
It flashed across my mind the murder in your eye
Are you the one we fear and talk of when we try to sleep
The man who helped himself and never skipped a beat
And then come to me in the dead of night
And I convince myself it'll be alright
And when you hold me close as the night unfolds
And I convince myself we'll grow old
And when you come to me in the dead of night
And I convince myself it'll be alright
There is no point replacing, there is no point in chasing
There is no point defacing, there is no point erasing you
And when you come to me in the dead of night
And I convince myself it'll be alright
And when you hold me close as the night unfolds
And I convince myself how we'll grow old
And when you come to me in the dead of night
And I convince myself we're alright
