Another Night

Shadows creeping up your spine,

Teardrops falling from your eyes,

Dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping...

Washing away the dirt of the day

And making room for pitch black shame.

Lyrics tearing up your ears,

Music bringing back your fears,

Pounding, pounding, pounding, pounding...

Verses carved out on your tongue,

Angsty words too harshly sung.

Monsters underneath your bed,

(The things you really should have said)

Regretting, regretting, regretting, regretting...

Now hold your breath forevermore,

You've lost your chance at winning war.

Dreams all lumped up in your throat,

They always tell you not to gloat,

Hiding, hiding, hiding, hiding...

"Your thoughts are just a waste of time,"

Creativity: your horrid crime.

Moon too far up in the sky,

Your stars, forever unaligned,

Fading, fading, fading, fading...

Prepare yourself to feel the fright,

It's another neverending night.
