Child of the Night

There's a hole in my heart

torn by a bullet

it ripped me apart

and left me in shreds

I've never felt so lost

the pain is deep

I can never sleep

my bottled up tears

my pillow swallows it all

it feels my pain

muffles my cries

I wonder if anyone

could understand

who am I

and what have I done

I don't think I can ever again

face the Sun

and the Earth it cries

along with me

there's pollution in her skies

like the pollution in my eyes

and rest assured

she holds me tight

the child of the stars

the child of the night.❋
