The Middle of the Night

Monday, April 20, 2020

It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Everyone's left except for the demons
Your mind won't be silent or still
A disobedient child
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Your trapped in a place with no love
Your secrets keeping you up
Forbidden tears falling
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
He left you with lies
And you left him your heart
Neither you or your world are the same
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
She's tired of hearing of it
You know and it hurts you
You couldn't stop any of it so you left
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You lost your child and his world
And they don't stop cause you're unimportant
Getting caught up in the flurries
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Your family moves on without you
No one calls and it pains you
You lost a gamble and had to let them go
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Your ride to freedom left an hour too early
And now you're stuck in a prison
There's no love here
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You're in a war zone
Fighting and no one's on your side
They don't know, they won't understand
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You're graduating soon
You've got no plans for after
Cause dreamers don't survive
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You're living a lie
And if you don't you lose your roof
You'd be the talk of the town
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Your body is falling apart
You're scared to tell
And the medics are already in a frenzy
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You're mind is scrambled
But you don't tell anyone
They don't care or you don't want them to
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Your body is screaming
It's marked and pressed and bruised
It cracks and pops
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Your stomach growls cause you don't deserve food
Your heart beats now that your mind has quieted
Your body won't let you sleep
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You don't believe in love
Cause you got your heart broken
And no one sees you in that light despite the crown
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
He's happy and has people with him
You're sad and lost with less than a hand of people
He killed you, smiled and moved forward while you rot
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You don't know what you're doing
Because you're a dreamer
But you're talentless
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
You're scared
You've been chasing clouds
But the world is a storm ready to strike you down
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
She's off doing grander things
So she doesn't see until it's late
But you don't care and you never corrected her
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
The world is in chaos
People are dying
Stress is building
It's the middle of the night and you're all alone
Because you have no one left
You don't trust anyone anymore
And love is running low
