Time of Night
I hate this time of night
When nothing seems quite right
The silence sets in, it's a deafening roar
Everything about this time of night I deplore
It's like stepping into a dark abyss
To live all alone and cold like this
The house is hauntingly lonely
With only my demons to console me
Agonizing coldness greets me under the covers
I take my little pills, anything that smothers
The terrifying nightmares that await
When I step through sleeps drowsy gate
But no matter what I seem to do
These nagging nightmares still pursue
Awake most the night, again it seems
Till the sun shines thorough my window it's beams
Wonder how long I can go without sleep
Before the secrets I hide begain to seep
Out of my mind and on to the pages
And everyone sees the battles that rages
But that's ok I think they already have
And the only one that can judge me is Yahve
