Night holds power
Darkness brings fear
Thoughts we have
During these long hours
Consume our being
How can we make it through
This night alone

Will this suffering ever end?
I put the blade to my skin
This old familiar friend
We have met again

Will I be happy once more?
As I walk to the ledge
Looking down at the shore
As I take my last breath

Will my pain ever subside?
With these pills in hand
No tear I have cried
A peaceful way to end

You can't see through my smile
That I wear everyday
You can't see past my laugh
With each passing day
My secrets are hidden
Deep inside
There is no trust
No hope
Only lies
