If you look at me in the clear light of dawn;

You will see me for who I really am.

If you look at me in the light of the setting sun;

You will only see me as the mask I wear.

Darling, I need you to see me for who I am;

Take a long slow look in the cold morning dew.

I am afraid to show you who I am;

So you are blinded by the heat of the setting sun.

But in the clear light of dawn;

You can catch a glimpse of my soul

In the light of the setting sun;

You won’t see that it is black as coal.
