Nightfalls Songtext
von Monopines

Night falls especially hard on some
Government buildings blue into dusk
Fake birds in real cages
Desire lines you can′t trust

What he can't see
Through the cracked-glass tree in his eye
I myself as well walk by
Palm a scoop from the fountain
Try to wake yourself up from this one
I reach out
Only to pull my coat together
It′s been some weather
It's been some weather
Wouldn't you say?


Night falls especially hard on some
Government building blue into dusk
Fake birds in real cages
Desire lines you can′t trust
A red lightbulb and a non-diegetic buzz
At the end of this tunnel, ′cuz
Somebody cue the blue strings
Let's let the shadows define the walls

All lit up and empty
Like a high school lobby at midnight
All the purple, plastic chairs stacked inside
"Call this number for a good time"

That′s not what I meant to say
Intention is falling away
I put myself out to pasture
(Is anyone out here?)
Can somebody answer?
(Insidious clatter...)

Then, like a hammer
The dark
