In the still of the night I find myself alone But I am not afraid For I have overcome Depression used to hold me down, But I have found my way Through the darkness and the pain I have found a brighter day So now I stay up late With nothing but my thoughts But I am not alone For I have fought and I have wrought A life that's worth living A life that's full of joy And though I may be by myself I know I'm not a lonely boy For I have learned to love myself And to find solace in my mind And now I am free From the chains that held me confined

Twilight's Solitude
In the still of the night I find myself alone But I am not afraid For I have overcome Depression used to hold me down, But I have found my way Through the darkness and the pain I have found a brighter day So now I stay up late With nothing but my thoughts But I am not alone For I have fought and I have wrought A life that's worth living A life that's full of joy And though I may be by myself I know I'm not a lonely boy For I have learned to love myself And to find solace in my mind And now I am free From the chains that held me confined
It's an all to familiar feeling to be awake late at night alone. It used to make me sad, but I've learned to love it. The peace, the silence, the solitude. My time to reflect, reminisce, and dream- yet not through sleep.
