Nexus

You look so damn good beneath stadium lights
The darkness comes gradually to stun
But I can't be this way, I can't hunt for my prey
I want to but I'm just not good enough

The nights get longer each night
And the hours tick slower each time I look up
So my hope fades away
I'm going where the tide's about to change

All the girls wearing sequins and pearls
Dressed up to score, best ones don't look like whores
I never could choose, simply born to lose this game
Each time here's the same
My friends all fumble and tumble through mists of regret
A night that shouldn't have been
I'll stand here waiting and crying alone in my room
Happiest when I'm not seen

The nights get longer each night
And the hours tick slower each time I look up
So my hope fades away
I'm going where the tide's about to change
I'm going where the tide's about to change
