Storm of the Night

I sit here enduring the pain,

Off in the distance I can hear the rain.

I cant get you off my mind,

It all rushes to me like an ocean tide.

You left me here with a gaping hole,

I guess i just finally lost control.

I remember the night you swallowed the pills,

Every little memory gives me the chills.

Riddled on your wrists were tons of scars,

Since then i spent my time going to bars.

Now i sit on a stool with a picture of you,

Staring at it and crying a tear or two.

I lift the bottle and take my final drink,

I close my eyes and never blink.

The sound of the shot is lost in the storm,

The cool feeling of the night becomes warm.

Then i opened my eyes and there you stand,

I follow you to the gates hand in hand.
