Why do they stay on
When their work is done?
Why don't they go home?
Home to where they're loved

No one's really home
Until they're in the ground
Rest well tonight with friends
Sleep well tonight with

Friends who don't go out at night
They're friends who stay in
With their lights on
Friends who don't unlock their doors

There's danger here, there's danger here
Danger
You're better off inside

It's easier said than done
What's done is never gone
And what's gone ain't coming back
What's gone ain't coming back

No one's really home
The lights just glow alone
They're sleeping in their homes
Of silent, quiet

Friends who don't go out at night
They're friends who stay in
With their lights on
Friends who don't unlock their doors

There's danger here, there's danger here
There's danger
You're better off inside
Better off inside
Better off inside
