The sky is white as the sun goes down
We squint and we stare to the west
To see it go and dark begin
The night will take the shining place

Though we've seen it all a million times
We still wonder when it all will end
What disaster waits for us?
What will nature send?

We still hide in the night
Since we had our caves we have done it all the same

Left to my own devices to find my own way
And carve out my own space in this place
Just another to sink or swim
I wonder which it will be
