This Dark Night

by Lizabelle   Feb 19, 2012


I'm all alone in this dark night
That's why I have begun to write
Lonely, scared, and bleeding, yes
I need some help, I must confess

I called a hotline, it did no good
They helped me as much as they could
But now there's silence on the other end
I have no one to call a friend

Who could help me in my plight?
Who would help me, in this night?
I'm shaking, shaking, shaking, now
This weakness, I cannot allow

I've curled up into a tight ball
Scared that off this cliff I'll fall
As I lay upon my bed
Myself is that thing which I dread

I've tried the ice, the rubber bands
But it's as different as two lands
One is this, and one is not
One is cutting, one is squat

Who could help me in my plight?
Who would help me, in this night?
I'm shaking, shaking, shaking, now
This weakness, I cannot allow

Crying because of the pain
Not physical, but in my brain
Or rather in my chest, I feel
That I will never, ever heal

No one can help me, no one would
Even though some think they should
I'd rather take this road alone
So that my guilt, I can postpone

Who could help me in my plight?
Who would help me, in this night?
I'm shaking, shaking, shaking, now
This weakness, I cannot allow
