My Iron Lung - Somnium lyrics

Walk a line between day and night Natures clock, a way to keep things in order But only half of us wake up at the right time In the morning there's a mirror in the hallway That you stare in, displaying an image A reflection of all the choices made All the time you've invested in things other than yourself From the hallway to the living room Think it over slow, there's a window that daylight hits When it's open you can hear it, the chaos in the streets Every day routine sounds just like how today feels; familiar Then the night strikes and you'll find things to be different You can feel it, so careless and free, so dark and poisoning The night, warm blood and high spirits At the time, the low light fit us perfect Like the shade of your face under dim light It kept me staring until the shade departs, when the day arrives And I'm exposed to everything The imperfections, the truth and lies Light and dark, neither can survive at the same time Only one lets you see There's beauty in survival, there's beauty in leaving
