Songs on Sunday: As the night draws in



[Verse 1: Ghostpoet]
I had a dance with the devil
I couldn't keep his pace
He gave a trademark cackle
I tried to hide my face
Trying to stay on the narrow
The straight's come to an end
I seek prose for a pep talk
I need your help, my friend

[Chorus: Ghostpoet]
Woe is me
Just give it up
As the night draws in
We're all seeking love
Woe is me
Just give it up
As the night draws in
We're all seeking love

[Verse 2: Ghostpoet]
One step at a time
Tattered on our foot
You gave me food for thought
We're packed in on the tube
Bee's sweat on the mission
Crawling down my cheek
Eyes wide like a flatscreen
I haven't reached my peak

[Chorus: Ghostpoet]
Woe is me
Just give it up
As the night draws in
We're all seeking love
Woe is me
Just give it up
As the night draws in
We're all seeking love

[Bridge: Daddy G]
Who gives a fuck if you be acting a clown?
Pass the queen's head and watch it go down
Tit for tat gets a young girl's passion
Hold it on tight to that glass of fashion
Knocking down the spirits till you're dropped to your knees
Don't sneeze, ninja please
We're dancing 'round the toilets in this whimsical scene
And if I be wicked then woe unto me

[Chorus: Ghostpoet]
Woe is me
Just give it up
As the night draws in
We're all seeking love
Woe is me
Just give it up
As the night draws in
We're all seeking love
We're all seeking love
