Monsters and Black Stones - Talisco

The sound of midnight

Rings out on the cobbles

The moon has an eye on me

The night will be long

In the street light

Caught up by the fear

The rain begins to fall

Now the wind

Every street lamp seems to live

In every alleyway, everything seems to be alive

And the dusk now slips away

I’m afraid, I must wait for the sunrise

Now the monsters slide on the black stones

Tonight will stay a memory

Now I must pray for the new day

When the great bells will ring

I can hear the drip

Of water on cobbles

Unholy theatre

I’m smiling alone

In the moonlight

Condemned to wander

While families sleep

A shadow

Every street lamp seems to live

In every alleyway, everything seems to be alive

And the dusk now slips away

I’m afraid, I must wait for the sunrise

Now the monsters slide on the black stones

Tonight will stay a memory

Now I must pray for the new day

When the great bells will ring

Midnight light is hitting the pavement

And the big moon is losing memory

A silence playing with the rain

In the Royal Mile with castles in the air

Now the monsters slide on the black stones

Tonight will stay a memory

Now I must pray for the new day

When the great bells will ring
