taraxacum - dark sunglasses lyrics

[music & words: f. doernberg]

i wear dark sunglasses at night
so i can walk around and hide
the pain that burns so deep inside
i wear dark sunglasses at night

i wear dark sunglasses at night
so i still pretend i'm doin' right
although my faith and trust have died
i wear dark sunglasses at night

[chorus]

livin' in the shade, my friend, is like swimming in the sand
i've spend my nights in the neon lights and there ain't no helpin' hand
maybe now i've reach the end - and when i finally pass away
to take my glasses off - have a drink on me spread my ashes on a
windy day

[solo eggi] [solo ferdy]

i wear dark sunglasses at night
i show a smile and a lotta pride
while in my heart the demons fight
i wear dark sunglasses at night

i wear dark sunglasses at night
i did my best - lord, how i tired
i shut my eyes now open wide
i wear dark sunglasses at night

[chorus]

livin' in the shade, my friend, is like swimming in the sand
i've spend my nights in the neon lights and there ain't no helpin' hand
maybe now i've reach the end - and when i finally pass away
to take my glasses off - have a drink on me spread my ashes on a
windy day

i wear dark sunglasses at night
lost my only love on the other side
maybe now she's some kinda devil's bride
i wear dark sunglasses at night

i wear dark sunglasses at night
so noone can see the tears i've cried
maybe i should've booked another fligth
i wear dark sunglasses at night
