Into the Night

Where do I go to confront my fears? Into the night? Embrace the cold reality of life- into the night. Driving through Florida is more fun when you don't look back Speeding through the vast expanse into the night. Heated laughter embraces me from every angle Deep orange embers glow and crackle long into the night. You stand with your arms folded across your chest Staring as if I weren't even there- into the night. Joy is not always found in a broken home Silent tears keep me company into the night. Where did all my friends go? Did I even have any? They have disappeared like hungry thieves into the night. Sadness always descends upon me at just the right time Taking my life would be so easy- vanishing quietly into the night. This bloody concoction of death and deliverance is intoxicating I raise my glass again- Cheers!- Into the night. Tribulations are much too hard to face on my own Please stay by my side, even into the night. Charged memories explode like firecrackers, never leaving me alone They yank my hand and pull me back into the night.
