Call Him Daylight - Hiss Golden Messenger

Hey there, bad as night,

I think I’ll call him Daylight

And I’ll call him once, with a song.

He’s got nothing on,

He comes naked with the dawn

and I know that I will call him Daylight.

Knock once, and now knock twice,

The moon is sacrificed

To the one that we call Daylight

Blows in, my old friend

It’s been a long time coming

I called all night, but I was afraid

You come at such a time,

as you see fit, no compromise

That’s why I call you Daylight

Moving evermore

Though our children go to war

Some call you destroyer, some Daylight

and I’m not gonna dance

I’m not gonna dance

I’m gonna dance until my ship comes in

But when my ship comes in

When my ship comes in

When my shop comes in I’m gonna lose control

Oh, my soul,

Now you own it

And you call it by the name Daylight

Now do you know me,

Your one and only?

I’m glad for you to call me Daylight.
