Face The Night

from The Mountain by Paolo Sala

/

lyrics

Do you think of the sound
Of your shoes on the gravel?
Do you feel on a swing
As the wind makes you lighter?
The wooden fence
The milestone sign
The mountain slope
In an uphill climb

Do you see what it means
To feel lost in a bedroom
When you’re terribly weak
When you’re scared of the holy gloom
The ghostly sparrows
The call you heard
The arrow swallows
The choir of birds

You’re gonna face the night
You’re gonna face the night
We think you won’t survive
No you will not survive at night, oh no

Do you notice the sound
Of your breathing and thinking
Do you count one two three
As the heart beat increases the rate
What is your wish?
What is your will?
Does it matter
When you climb uphill?

You’re gonna face the night
You’re gonna face the night
We think you won’t survive
No you will not survive at night, oh no

It doesn’t matter what I try
It makes no difference if I die
I’ve packed my stuff I sent the cards
I lost the money and the charts
It doesn’t matter what they say
It makes no difference anyway
I learnt the things to cross the line
reset the shades of blue inside my mind

Do you know what to do?
Do you think you will make it?
Have you thought of the night
As an essential blanket?
