Time slows to a stop
Once twilight falls away
The dark things slowly come over
And everything gives way
To the Stray Kids
And the stray dogs
Who are one in the same
Survivors,
With a little more freedom
To be a little less tame.

And I have to make sense of it all
The darkness enfolds
All the secrets it holds
It’s just you and me,
And that’s worth more than gold
So we’re here, waiting for
the world to break
There’s just you and me,
and we’re young,
after all
The seasons change,
but the n i g h t stays the same
Everything will be fine
until it all eventually falls
So stay with me,
And no surprises please
It’s just you and me
Dancing in the dark,
Only us for as far
as we
can see
Even if you could run away,
Tell me that you
would want to stay
Tell me that even if you could go,
You’d stay with me in the n i g h t
Because as much as I’d like,
I could never follow you
into the light
The taste of disaster
Weighs down heavy on my tongue
But I’m a dumb aesthete
And call it poetry
And we’re still just Stray Kids,
afterall
Stuck in this world
Pretending that we’re having fun
Just Strays,
And just Kids,
Too young for much at all
Pretending that there’s still magic
And life and love
And maybe there is,
If we imagine hard enough
If we ignore the dark
That seeps
Into our already b l a c k e n e d hearts
And we pretend
That the Moon shines just as bright
As the sun,
Then maybe we can see the beauty of life
Life is beautiful
And we’ll see that, someday
Someday soon
We have to
