Last Night

on Jun 8, 2011

I think I’ve found the bottom.
I called your phone and let it ring
Dialed your number and I waited
Listing to your voice answering

Last night was far too quiet
Not a sound to wake me from the nightmare.
They say they are just so sorry
But they don’t walk alone

No tears for you in weeks
And I hear that means I’m strong
But with my heart in so many pieces
I lack the strength to cry at all

Last night the noise was deafening
No peace to escape the dark
They say it will be alright in the end
But they don’t walk alone.
——
She has your eyes, and all your joy
She’s the only gift I hold to now
You had everything you wanted in the end
And in the end, I know you’ll be so proud

I think tonight I’ll finally sleep
While feeling her breathing in my arms
They say it must be tough without you
But they can’t see it…

Because with her, I don’t walk alone.
