Stumble on to the pavement; they’re strapped tight to bed
They’ve got a fetish for sheep, straitjacket sheets
But I’ve got Randy Newman in my head
This is no corn-fed day, it’s gloomy, blue, and cold
So let the muggings occur, I feel secure
They say that I’m peculiar, but

Oh, I don’t know, I don’t care
I’ll be waiting for you there
Crave this chill, bathe in black
All the ghouls and fiends attack
Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallid moon
Praise the night, and praise the night
The only time I feel alright

Under the sun gods stare, I wince and blossom hives
Counting the fractions of day, rotting away
As businessmen just drink away their lives
But when the stars once shy, come bloom and blanket earth
I feel beloved and blessed, quite Byronesque
I need to just get off my chest that

Oh,I don’t know I don’t care
I’ll be waiting for you there
Crave this chill, bathe in black
All the ghouls and fiends attack
Eyes erupt, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon
Praise the night, and praise the night
The only time I feel alright

I don’t know I don’t care
I’ll be waiting for you there
Crave this chill, bathe in black
All the ghouls and fiends attack
Head combust, and I swoon, underneath the pallet moon
Praise the night, and praise the night
The only time I feel alright

    General Comment:This song feels like it's a tribute and/or sequel to Woe--somehow. The drums throughout most of the song, as well as the tempo and the way he sings the lyrics, are just so similar to Woe. And Woe is my favorite Say Anything song, so this song definitely sticks out for me.

    Lyric Correction:It's also "pallid" moon, as in "lacking intensity of color or luminousness".

    Despite the fact that this has some of Max's most impressive lyrics, the song itself doesn't resonate with me at all. I'm just not feeling it.
