Alone in the Night

The night it whispers
Someone calls my name
These sheets are cold
And empty just the same
A breeze slides across my skin
Sweeping a chill along my back
I feel so alone, so empty
Is it safety that I lack
There are no strong arms
To hold back my tears
No brilliant deception
Nagging at my fears
It is plain and simple
An honest sort of truth
I lost what was best in me
At the beginning of my youth
Now it can drag me down
To the edge of my grave
Or I can shrug it off
And awaken to a new day
