What's gonna happen to you when the things that you live for are suddenly gone'
What's gonna happen to you when the things you believe in are taken'
All of your days, and all of your nights, you spend waiting for something you know you will never obtain,
Hear what I'm saying.

Don't be afraid of the thief in the night,
There's nowhere on Earth you can hide,
He'll free you from chains and steal you away,
Don't be afraid.

What's gonna happen to you when the wall all around you are closing fast'
What's gonna happen to you when the bottom falls out from below you'
Safe from the knife, feeling no pain,
You go searching for clues how to win this ridiculous game everybody is playing.

Don't be afraid of the thief in the night,
There's nowhere on Earth you can hide,
He'll free you from chains and steal you away,
Yield to the thief in the night.

Do you hear what I'm saying'
Are you listening'

What's gonna happen to you when the ship you've been waiting for doesn't come in'
And what's gonna happen to you when you come to the end of the line'

Don't be afraid of the thief in the night,
There's nowhere on Earth you can hide,
He'll free you from chains and steal you away,
Yield to the thief in the night.

Don't be afraid,
Yield to the thief in the night.
