   My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
  I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark
  My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
  I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark
  
  I don't know when I noticed life was life at my expense
  The words of my heart lined up like prisoners on a fence
  The dreams came in like needy children, tugging at my sleeve
  I said I have no way of feeding you, so leave
  There was a time I asked my father for a dollar
  And he gave me a ten dollar raise
  I needed my mother and I called her
  And she stayed with me for days
  
  Now someone's on the telephone, desperate in his pain
  Someone's on the bathroom floor, doing her cocaine
  Someone's got his finger on the button in some room
  No one can convince me we aren't gluttons for our doom
  But I tried to make this place my place
  I asked for Providence to smile upon me, with his sweet face
  But I'll tell you
  
  My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
  I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark
  My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark (By grace my sight grows stronger)
  And I will not be a pawn (I will not be) for the prince of darkness any longer
  
  Maybe there's no haven in this world for tender age
  My heart beat like the wings of wild birds in a cage
  My greatest hope my greatest cause to grieve
  And my heart flew from it's cage, and it bled upon my sleeve
  The cries of passion were like wounds that needed heeling
  I couldn't hear them for the thunder
  I was half the naked distance between hell and heaven's ceiling
  And it almost pulled me under
  
  Now someone's on the telephone, desperate in his pain
  Someone's on the bathroom floor, doing her cocaine
  Someone's got his finger on the button in some room
  No one can convince me, we aren't gluttons for our doom
  But I tried to make this place my place
  I ask for Providence to smile upon me, with his sweet face
  But I tell you
  
  My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark
  I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark
  My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark (By grace my sight grows stronger)
  I do not feel the romance, I do not catch the spark (I can feel it growing stronger)
  My place is of the sun and this place is of the dark (By grace my sight grows stronger)
  And I will not be a pawn (I will not be) for the prince of darkness any longer
