Tonight

Crying for understanding, praying for a dream,
Wishing it would end right here, stopping the eternal scream.
You say you're doing fine, you're really quite OK,
While waking up in the morning, not ready to face the day.

Someone tells you something, like you look so great today,
Thanking him with a smile, hoping he goes away.
You sit there sunken in thought, hoping you will survive,
But at the same time thanking god, that you are still alive.

Praying the tears away wishing for a friend,
Who won't talk around your back, who'd stay with you 'till the end.
The tears won't come tonight, you say inside your head,
'Cause this afternoon I'll be gone, tonight I will be dead.
