that time of night

Its that time of night

when all I do is try to write

but all that comes out is

words and not WORDS

 

Everything is funnier

in this funny time of night

and yet nothing has made you

want to cry so hard in your life

 

Isn't everyone lonely

in this lonely time of night

but a thousand other people

are lonely tonight

 

Lets all be lonely together

 

It's getting to that time of night

when the numbness becomes

unbearably

light

 

I'm afraid I'm starting to feel again

and believe me

I've never wanted to understand

why all our lives end

 

It's finally that time of night

when blood looks blue and not red
