Put your work aside, now
For the night is deep,
Stars patrol the Heavens,
Time enough to sleep.
Darkness breathes a night scent
Blowing out the day
Turn from that computer
nightime is for play.
(Time enough for sorrow
Time enough for pain
When the bright day’s dawning,
Lights the world again.)
Now the night has fallen
See the stars look down,
Can you hear the music
Drifting from the town?
Listen to the music
Listen to the beat,
Is there something there that
Makes you tap your feet?
If you hate the path you’ve
Danced along too long,
Turn and find another
You can change your song
If the road you follow,
Leads too near the crypt,
Turn and find another,
You can change your script.
Now it’s almost midnight
Stories haven’t lied
Midnight is the time
That I leave with my bride.
Comes the final curtain,
When we dance away,
There’s my happy ending,
Come with the new day.
Muse, “Sweet” the singing demon.
