Dead night

Nobody awake, such peace and quiet,
nothing moves , not even slight,
the world is sleeping,
its all right,
its after all for me,
a dead night.

Memories of past,
so vivid and bright,
the moments of passion,
and days of slight,
the fights started at trifling pretense,
in hindsight they don't make any sense,
the world is sleeping,
its all right,
its after all for me,
a dead night,

Is there no hope?
not even slight?
can anyone understand,
my miserable plight?
and light a candle,
for me at night,
am not a believer,
but i believe in justice,
a mirage that lives,
out of my sight,
oh! the pain i have caused,
tortures me day and night,
the world is sleeping,
its all right,
its after all for me,
a dead night,

the promises i made,
matter no longer,
my words seem hollow,
i seethe with anger,
no esteem,
no love,
no passion no pride,
i pass my days sleeping,
eyes open wide,
trying to dream,
trying to scream,
the world is sleeping,
its all right,
its after all for me,
a dead night,

someone once said,
there are no free lunches,
i found that out the hard way,
and all i do since then,
is that i pray,
life seems like the games they play,
except there is no restart,
and when you are hurt,
that's how you stay,
am not a believer,
i just sway,
from one hope to another,
last month was a dagger,
it killed my heart,
and left me alive,
cold, and bloody,
a corpse , a john-doe,
the world is sleeping,
its all right,
its after all for me,
a dead night.
