Nightly Disease Part II - Madrugada

There is a hole in the night

That the city keeps travelling round

There is a hole in the roof where the ego comes down

There is a hole in the closet where the coats go to fly

There is a hole in the closet where noisy cats go to die

I step away from the window

I am struck by a nightly disease

Something has been coming

A long time it’s been crawling

Out of pitch-black and expanding seas

It’s clearly headed in my direction

I am strong but I need protection

A hole in my heart tonight

There is a hole in my heart tonight

There is a hole in my heart tonight

There is a hole in my heart tonight

Alright

Ah, there were times when I had just one eye

It took a field to fly and a bird to cry

Or just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand

Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand

Yeah

That sort of memory is no match for my poisonous pen

Big bad boy approaches the mirror

With a dead black bird in his bad-fingered hand

Hand extended in my direction

I am strong but I need protection

There is a hole in my heart tonight

There is a hole in my heart tonight

There is a hole in my heart tonight

There is a hole in my heart tonight

Alright

Hand extended in my direction

I am strong but I need protection

Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand

Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand

Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand

Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand
