Night Scares
Smell the ozone filling the air
See the people perspire with fear
One by one the lights wink out
As the skies release one great big shout
The sky has scared itself it seems
As its tears roll down the screens
Like mummies, we roam about the house
While the world rages outside
Inside, we're quiet as a mouse
Nyx and Gaea are at it tonight
When women quarrel, men bid good night
Alas, all is not quite as lost as it seems
Cause Apollo rides his chariot across from the east
Trailing a rainbow across the skies
Seen even through the mist that veils our eyes
