Goodnight everybody, will you please shut the light? Goodbye everybody, I need to close my eyes Goodnight everybody, please let me dream tonight Goodbye everybody, I've got to leave my life In the cradle of the night In the cradle of the night Don't care about yourself Look out here it comes
Light! Shining in my eyes I can't move my legs are afire! I can't breathe no more I just wanna live Let me live I just wanna live In the cradle of the night In the cradle of the night Don't care about yourself Look out here it comes
The Nation is now a memory The atmosphere is cold and black People gotta stay home! Stay home! Justice and freedom have been done But dearly paid We're dying We're dying We die!
Light! Shining in my eyes I can't move my legs are afire! I can't breathe no more I just wanna live Let me live I just wanna live In the cradle of the night In the cradle of the night Yet you touch the stars Welcome to heaven Am I in heaven?
