The Tragedy of a Lonely Night (old)

Your words defy the wisdom


Imprinted on my brain

The countless foreign memories

The beating of the rain

Constantly we tremble

Beyond our moments hush

Here we stand so silent

Amidst the morning rush



But here we find the problem

The parody of it all

While I search for the beginning

The end will never stall

Holding on is useless

When time steals all things

The memories your words beckon

Becoming so strained



Listening as to hear

As my senses become drained

Struggling to feel this

As we sit inside our rain

Blending in to nature

Being out of sight

Buried are our consequences

We’ve left them for the night

We sail across these oceans

Beyond what most can see

Through exchange of bitter words

We burn our candle light

Nothing seems to hold our key

But we hold each other



I was born with nimble hands

And brittle broken fingers

Solace slips between them

And reaches for the trigger

If we find our comfort

If we find our place to be

Born again we've become

Replacing both our keys

Locks now we burden

Beyond our subtlety



Your words defy my wisdom

Imprinted on my brain

The countless foreign memories

The beating of the rain

Constantly we tremble

Beyond our moments hush

Here we stand so silent

Amidst the morning rush



Again I know I'll see you

Though this night is not for us

When morning comes

Our battles won

Another day goes by

As I lay asleep with you by my side.
