I need you to make it through the night he said,
over and over that's what he would say,
a few more hours and everything will be okay,
then we can say good morning to a brand new day,
yesterday would be history and we could move forward with our lives,
we just have to make it through the night,
little did i know I would be in for one heck of a fight,
because the demons were trying to bust down the boarded door,
with all their might,
The voices of the damned rang through my head,
telling me to open the door,
so they can put me to bed,
but with no tuck,
or kiss on the forehead,
Just agonizing pain and misery until I'm dead,
a few more minutes and I will be home free,
light on the horizon I can see,
then I open my eyes to a barrel in my mouth,
the trigger almost squeezed,
tears running down my face,
I'm already down on my knees,
Just make it through the night and everything will be okay,
but in my heart of hearts i don't want everything to be okay,
so just before I pull the trigger I say,
I love you to the moon and back,
but I couldn't make it past today.
