There's something in the moon tonight. I feel it in the air. The dew is shining bright tonight. I notice something there. In the distance people sleep tonight. My mind is never scared. The shadows are my friends tonight. Alone in the dark I stare. Under street lamps I stand alone tonight. Cool wind blowing through my hair. Over here the secrets lay tonight. Leave me, they won't dare. My thoughts paint the trees tonight. They stand tall and fair. Cement below my feet tonight. These streets, they lay me bare.
Animal instincts kick in
Preying in the night begins
No beat to a drum dwelling within
Only raging needs, wild in sin
The need to feed tonight
Endangered kind making a change
Consuming handfuls with no shame
These teeth and claws have no range
The need to feed tonight
Glowing eyes see the coming dawn
Once a lively town vanished, gone
The need to feed tonight
Hidden until the moment is right
The need to feed tonight
and he will leave me alone tonight
Again within my darkness, my question and fright
and again, again my emotions are denied
And again I pretend to be okay, when a heart is fried
I'd like to know just one thing
Will there ever be an answer to bring?
Night by night, without a knock on my door
Tears so frozen, still thoughts bringing me so sore
I embrace my shadows and what I have been ripped from
I try to look up to the sky, and yet there's still no sight of a visible sun
Your lies cloud the beauty from what I could see
Your lies take away from what I thought could be
and it's all so obvious, yet my boredom chooses to hold me up so
To the still of chained emotions, trying to grasp the shadows made of woe
and again, I still do not know why
When my only entertainment is looking forward to another lie..
With your words draped in sweet clever disguises
Lead me only to questions and silent demises
You again speak of love so freely
But I can tell by your eyes you don't hold it dearly
and I'll wait intently again for more words to keep me company
So I can cling to something, someone, but instead I look forward to agony
It's something I don't quite understand
but it's the closest I have to someone else's hand
and he will leave me alone for another night
Still without another explanation, I cling to an empty sight
It's been a terrible week
It feels like I'm about to sink
Last week's bright sky darkened again
Just when I thought I reached heaven
Tonight when I saw you
I only saw trouble in your eyes
When I walked towards you
Like I always had, I didn't smile
Yes, I remember the past
How you treated me like dust
The heart can never be taught
You were in my every thought
Maybe that was the reason why
I frowned and rolled my eyes tonight
'Cause you never answered my apologies
You never even said any word to me
That is why when I saw you,
When your friend greeted me
And you both smiled at me
I never knew what to do
Time stopped at that very moment
Questions took over me
Time might have put a better end
To this bitter story
Maybe this is all in my head
Or I just misinterpreted
Maybe you weren't smiling at me
Or I'm now just tired of fighting
Maybe this is a fresh start
Maybe that was a best part
Maybe we would be old, good friends again
Maybe our story would begin again
We dream until we don't
We live until we stop
All these days are now
And now they're not
I live today, tonight, tomorrow
Maybe it'll save me from sorrow
A reality I chose to follow
leads a still life, lost in between
constant cracks throughout my path
Always craving something more
yet held by phantoms that spin me round
They make me nauseous where I'm bound
Unshackle me from there
I do not belong 'round here
Free thyself from these accursed lands
Brake the spell that tie the bands
The world is moving, shifting by
I'm standing without a reason why
nothing more may hold me
I'm really leaving now, goodbye
E.A.
