Up the ladder and into the night
Building courage to put up a fight
Down the glass embrace the pain
Frown collapse, stay the same
Mixed signals turned blind astray
It'll all change the next day.

Smiling, laughing joking alike
Thoughts toiling clashing poking with spite
A past written blood soaked tears
Wash them away, a few beers
Ridiculed and neglected a whim  
You're nothing, nothing just "him"
Pursue on, your mind would say
It'll all change the next day

Love and regret burning a fire
Lying awake, sleepless attire
Close your eyes and wish it away
Still nothing's better the next day
