Tears At Night
The tears that keep me up at night
Things you would kiss and make alright
Crying, now, I will no longer fight
All the ways your love was deceit
the gracious places we would meet
The tears that now, fall on my feet
I'm so broken inside
with all this sorrow to hide
and a false pride
Twice you kissed me
Leaving me empty
Can you let me be?
Hidden tears I dare not cry
the resistant times I wanted to die
No answer to the question 'why'.
The tears that embrace me late at night
Such a tragic and emotional sight
but you were never there by my side to fight
Tears that fall my on feet
The light that I will not greet
for fear that you'll give into deceit
Never by my side
So many times I've never tried
to repair this fabricated pride
What else is there to see?
You already saw me
Crying all alone and empty
The tears that fall at night
Fall on my feet when I try to fight
what I know is right.
