I've always been the one that dreamed, dreamed for the night to never become the day
I'd rather lie waiting in darkness or moonlight, than in the sunshine and slaving away
Lost in the dreams where I'm in a land of make-believe, where I'm too far to feel the pain
But with every morning comes a brand new day, full of brand new scars and bruises to gain

Day in, day out, all the days feel the same, only the night gives me any cold comfort
This has been my life for far too long now, and my hopes are starting to bend and contort
I feel like I'm breaking down inside, giving in to my fears as this hurt spreads across my chest
But everytime I see the moon shining in the night, I'm always hoping it'll all be for the best...

Slave away the day , sweet Salem, slave the day away
A cracked whip at your back, but still you take the pain
Pull a glimmer of light from the darkness of the night
Locked away deep inside, someday you'll see your true might
Untill the day comes, just keep on slaving, swe
