An Effect of the Night Lyrics

Be advised our language is deciphered
Every pause, itself, adds on a word
Sentences like clocks in perfect order
Everything is said and nothing's done
Oh, I've long held that the ride is done
Live with attachment to torture those that you love
Mirrors line the long, unending hallway
Where I see myself until I'm gone
How's the me that's hidden by the long way
That my image has to travel

Oh I've escaped and I can't step out of the light
When I realize the distance was an effect of the night
