She rides the sunset with a smile upon her face,
She envies those who can walk amongst the night.
The moon is a time when none should be out.
She knows this just as well as anyone else.
We should all just hide.
For the moon brings foul creatures with it.
All rising up after the horizon has drifted away.
The sun is our only protection.
the moon is our worst enemy.

The nighttime is a time where all the foul things of our society like to rise to their peaks. These things are drugs, alcohol, and smoking.
