How long is the night?

I do not know.

I may not know,

but I really wish it would go.

I wish it would go because I cannot see,

cannot see what’s right in front of me.

When it goes I will see,

see the beauty of life and my destiny.

When it goes they will too,

they the monsters terrorizing you.

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
