The night 

For half of it I lie awake

Wasting away inside

Thinking hoping dreaming believing

Of things that will never come

The light of day hurts me

The dark of night heals me

Pain some say

Life I believe

People say black equals death

White to life

I dream that whatever equals what we want

For we are our own creators

Create we may

Believe we do

 

People say life and death are different

But are they really

There's no line between

Our body simply ages

Our mind never changes

The soul changes never

For it only transfers

From body to body

Mind to mind

No matter where you may be

Feelings

Choices

Can you truly tell the difference

Or is it all the same

Do you lie awake at night 

 

Thinking of all the pain

Do you stay alive in the day

Believing in all you can gain

Do you believe in fairytales

Are you villain or hero

Truly you are both

No matter who you may be

Yet people fight continuously

Day night day night

Light dark light dark

But who is right

To decide what is good or bad

Wrong or right

For we aren’t gods

Only flaws
