The sun’ll slowly go away
Orange ending of the day
Some’ll quietly go to sleep
But that was never quite for me
The orange turns a deeper shade
And then the sky turns grey
While everybody drifts away

You know I thrive in the nightlight
Around the hours of midnight
I'm at it again, at it again, at it again
You know I thrive in the nightlight

And as the starlight fades away
I’m slowin down, I’m looking out, I’m countin down to
When the dreams’ll dissipate
They disappear, in joy or fear, and as you come to
The grey becomes a brighter shade
And then the sky turns blue
Exactly like my mood

You know I thrive in the nightlight
Around the hours of midnight
I'm at it again, at it again, at it again
You know I thrive in the nightlight

Escape the day for good
Give it, give it, give it up
I don’t wanna see, the sun beatin down on me
And I hear too much noise around me

You know I thrive in the nightlight
Around the hours of midnight
I'm at it again, at it again, at it again
You know I thrive in the nightlight
