[Verse 1]
I woke up in the dead of night (Oh, I died)
No light no shape no sound but I (Oh, I died)
I was wide-eyed but saw nothing (Oh, I died)
Kneeling down, feeling around (Oh, I died)
I felt the fur of something (Oh, I died)
In total dark I felt the sleeping thing up (Oh, I died)
From tail to claws, from neck to fangs (Oh, I died)
It was the black wolf they call nothing (Oh, I died)
And by its side I curled and lied (Oh, I died)
I died into sleeping soundlessly (Oh, I died)

[Verse 2]
When I woke there was nothing beside me of course
And the world was lit and growing
But I said "I know you're there, I feel your stare
I feel your breathing blowing
See your gnashing teeth and falling leaves
Your beady eyes and apples glowing
Oh dead of night hidden from sight
I know you are no dream
And I'm not dozing"
