Silent night, O silent night
feel the asphalt drop under your feet
see the crooked cops, haunting every street
in the silent night
Now divorce or marriage, can't tell the difference anymore
might as well leave my keys, by the broken door
might as well call it sacred, might as well call it rhyme
but I'm glad you made it, kid you're right on time
this Silent Night
Because the vampires, they won't hurt you here
they ain't looking for blood, they're looking for fear
and its fear i took, picked it from the tree
and as the flowers grew, it made a ghost of me
in the Silent Night
and now i stand, in front of the jury
with my name, swinging from my sleeve
they tell me i will never sleep
i say thats ok, keep my dreams close to me
in the Silent Night
Oh Bitter youth, you chose right
when you chose to leave me outside
with my cigarettes and my candle light
in the silent night
but when some junkie wants, to take my life
who are you to tell him
that it ain't his right
raises his bloody fists, at least he's ready to fight
for his time
Because if time is money, than money is time
and the devil weeps neath the frozen pine
and the songs grow ripe on the trembling vine
in the Silent Night
And what for the day, the ladies dance
with their beads shaking round their pretty hands
oh the diamond day, is gonna be alright
as long as we can make way, through the Silent Night
