The night is so lonely but it dies coming morning

The sunlight hurts my sight so I wrap hands around my head
But I still see flickering lights behind shut eyes
Maybe close your second eyelids then you’ll feel true dark

The voices are so loud even though you don’t hear a sound
The only way to quiet them is to listen to your body’s music
Like fire crackling or lava flowing, ignoring all the forest’s commotion

The night may seem lonely but all around you there’s life
