bring on the night

I get a burst of hope,

i see it slip away.

please bring on the night...

i cannot stand the day.

things keep happening,

but not the way i want.

My life is like a novel,

but i do not like the font.

Make it all stop now

just let me take a break.

because it seems now,

my heart is finally at stake.

happiness is not so happy,

and things keep going awry

just let me be by myself,

so no one sees me cry.

this life seems so happy,

I've got good things, my life is grand!

but i can't stay happy

i think i might just understand.

Good things and happiness are fleeting,

reality is: notheing ever stays.

so please bring on the night,

i cannot stand the day.
