Night Plague
Let it out, it’s destroying you
Like a plague running its course
Thickening with every turn
Blinding tearing you apart
Day turns to night with the notion
Everything’s going to be alright
While the shadow it creeps
Growing darker with greed
Seeking a soul to perch inside
Controlling craze infuriate
Deafening with silence
Numbing the brain
Needles gone shakes have come
Yearning for one more night of love
Pack of smokes burning eyes
They are your true friend
No lies I hide from you
Unknown hurt that you feel
Sickness growing in your veins
Wishing relief would come your way
