The Endless Night
Lying here staring at the four blank walls
Drowning in the silence
Breathing in one sharp breath
Praying for redemption
Holding back tears that want nothing more than to fall
The broken sobs, breaking through
Needing the release
The sharp intake of breath
Praying for control
Fighting off the urge to scream into the night
Wanting, for one moment, a small ray of light
Unable to hold it back
You scream and scream and scream
As the last echo of screaming drifts
The light breaks though for a brand new day
To do it all again
The endless cycle that has become
A living nightmare, it seems
The smiling face everyone sees
Is just a painted expression it weaves
For as night draws near
You know you are bound
To relive the silence again
Drowning in the silence
Breathing in one sharp breath
Praying for redemption
Holding back tears that want nothing more than to fall
The broken sobs, breaking through
Needing the release
The sharp intake of breath
Praying for control
Fighting off the urge to scream into the night
Wanting, for one moment, a small ray of light
Unable to hold it back
You scream and scream and scream
As the last echo of screaming drifts
The light breaks though for a brand new day
To do it all again
The endless cycle that has become
A living nightmare, it seems
The smiling face everyone sees
Is just a painted expression it weaves
For as night draws near
You know you are bound
To relive the silence again
