in the bleakness of the night
when i'm so alone
i tremble in the cold
and face the unknown
which lover will i find today?
which madness will i face today?
will i find the hidden key
to unlock my secrets
and i saw you there
leaning against the wall
dark black jeans
and a leather jacket
a perfect fantasy
something in my dreams
and i know that when i wake up
you'll be gone
and in the violent winter storm
i froze in place
i saw your face flash before my eyes
and i almost wanted to die
i thought it would be okay
but i'm still stuck in a cage
and i saw him there
leaning against the wall
late night it was fire bright
and the only thing in sight
was the dim light
and i know you don't care
and i guess i'll be fine
but if you ever wonder where i am
i'll be here
waiting for you to come find me
ooh
did you think about the outcome
ooh
the waters rising oh so fast
i just want this love to last
and i'll lean against the wall
and i'll take your place
rather be the boy who's always a toy
than the one who gets played every night
