Soliloquies in the Night
My eyes have seen the worst they can
I've gone beyond my limits again
My constant failures drown the joy that I receive
If only I can find release
The hate that swells and dwells I have to hide behind a smile
And my constant torment lives to know the mock the scorn the bile
Rising all my strength to keep away the splitting words the spitting spray
If I can only find release
My only friend is the wind that blows away the screams
That surround me while I sleep and my only conversation piece
Are those soliloquies in the night
