    • Hi Lucy,

      Here are the lyrics 🙂

      It’s close to midnight with fear and sadness lurking in the dark. Under the moonlight you feel a pain that almost stops your heart. You try to breathe, but tension takes the breath before you make it. You start to freeze as anger looks you right between the eyes. You’re paralyzed.

      Until your stiller, still inside. And no one else will save you from the beast inside yourself. Till you are stiller, still inside. You’re fighting for your life without a stiller, thriller insight.

      You hear the bell sound and realize there’s nowhere left to go. You see your mind run and wonder if you really see the sun. You close your eyes and know that this is just imagination. But all the while you feel the madness creepin’ up behind. You’ve lost your mind.

      Until you’re stiller, still inside. There ain’t no birth and death. There’s just the present and your breath. And then you’re stiller, still inside. You’re fighting for your life without a stiller, thriller insight.

      Mindfulness call and the dead start to step into freedom. There’s no way out except into the depths of your mind (It’s open wide). This is the start of your life.

      Now they can’t get you; though demons close you in on every side. They can’t possess you unless you’re trapped by habits in your mind. Now is the time for you and I to walk in peace together all through the night. It saves you from the terrors in your mind. It makes you free.

      Since it’s a stiller, stiller night. Your breathe can free you more than anything that you could buy. Yeah, now you’re stiller, still inside. Your practice is your guide to find a stiller, fuller, freer, deeper insight.

      That it’s a stiller, stiller night. Your breath can free you more than anything that you could buy. Yeah, now you’re stiller, still inside. Your practice is your guide to find a stiller, thriller insight.
