I don't mind the pain, or the jokers' cold refrain   The days pass by so slowly, I count them all again   Silence of a basement, shades all closed at noon   Lie awake for fear of strangers      Darkness comes on slowly, twilight is the ecstasy   Like a candle burning bright, shadows dance until the night   Empty rooms and chilling smiles   They go on for miles and miles      Chorus: But in the evening when the sun goes down   Crawl from the shadows got to get into town   Where the music is playin' all across the night   And every cloud disappears from sight      There goes a loser, another loser gone   There goes another, another who's alone   There goes a loser, another loser gone wild      I don't mind if violins don't play   I won't listen to them anyway   I don't care what people say   Some things just can't be arranged   Icy fingers touching you.   Silent voices calling too   What else is there to lose- I am here but where are you?      Chorus
