Not a single cloud in the sky.
The stars twinkle in the night.
There are no birds in flight;
they are to afraid to try.
The stars twinkle in the night.
There are no birds in flight;
they are to afraid to try.
The night air is so still
as if there is nothing alive.
How could anything survive
with the cold bound to kill...
The silence that surrounds you;
the emptiness pounds your soul
knowing nothing will make you whole
kills the dream you want to pursue.
The darkness crushes the final hope
that you were able to hold on to.
Only understanding that this is true
is the only thing that’ll help you cope.
The night is not a time to dream;
it is a time to learn the truth.
It’s a time to learn life is a ruse
but the night won’t let you scream.
It will only let your fears build
until there is nothing left to feel.
The wounds will never truly heal
and all you’ll have left is guilt.
The night is the most dangerous time
to entrust your most precious thoughts.
For you’ll only be fueling the tinderbox
in your heart burning with your crime.
The emptiness will swallow your mind
and make it unrecognizable by morning.
And as the world is dawning
the remnants of you are all they’ll find.
Don’t trust the night.
