Sometimes life hits you hard,
it throws you a curve ball...

Sometimes I try...
not to want you...

In the quiet of the night
I have no where else to run...

Tossing and turning,
waiting for the oblivion of sleep...

Once again sitting alone
trying to keep my thoughts at bay...

This pain inside of me,
I swear it's tearing me apart...

Sometimes in the dark
when the humid heat is still pressing down...

Close my eyes, block out the world,
let all my pretenses fall away...

As I wake up from my restless sleep
and the loneliness shrouds me again...

Sitting here alone in the dark
listening to the howling winds...

Laying here alone in the dark
just staring at the wall...

Reminding myself to breathe,
I hold back the tears and fight them...
