Waiting

Just after midnight, they are bringing me my pills
Just after midnight, lights are out...at Black Hill
But they don´t know me...they don´t know me at all
Tonight pills will be chills will be kills
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore
If I don´t take my medication, they will all be here
But I think I fooled them, I think...I´m in the clear
"Nursie" doesn´t know...this is her last night
She even brought the key, that´s gonna set me free
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore
Tonight I´m taking her instead
My hands are so much stronger
Than her isty-bitsy little head
Empty eyes are staring at the wall
I cannot hear her breathing anymore
I´m looking for the key in her hand
That bluish little hand
Running through the empty halls of this forgotten
place
Unlocking doors...that never opens
But now I´ve got the key...the key to freedom
And I´m unlocking doors that never should be opened
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore
6,6,6 miles...I´ve been running through the woods
6,6,6 miles...and now before me, the cemetery gates
I climb the gate between life and death
I walk upon the moonlit graves
I´m home
Just after midnight, lights are out...at Black Hill
But they don´t know me...they don´t know me at all
Tonight pills will be chills will be kills
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore
If I don´t take my medication, they will all be here
But I think I fooled them, I think...I´m in the clear
"Nursie" doesn´t know...this is her last night
She even brought the key, that´s gonna set me free
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore
Tonight I´m taking her instead
My hands are so much stronger
Than her isty-bitsy little head
Empty eyes are staring at the wall
I cannot hear her breathing anymore
I´m looking for the key in her hand
That bluish little hand
Running through the empty halls of this forgotten
place
Unlocking doors...that never opens
But now I´ve got the key...the key to freedom
And I´m unlocking doors that never should be opened
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take another night
Waiting in the dark, I cannot take it anymore
6,6,6 miles...I´ve been running through the woods
6,6,6 miles...and now before me, the cemetery gates
I climb the gate between life and death
I walk upon the moonlit graves
I´m home
