Longing to Smile

by dpy - Taurus

On a night like tonight all the stars are shining.
The sun has said goodbye and made way for the moon, but in the darkness when you don't see him, the sun is conspiring to take over the stars and make his stand this afternoon.

On a night like tonight the air is so thick.
Its hard to breathe, but I just can't stop.
In the darkness, when you don't see me, i'm smothering quick.
I lie down on the grass as the rain starts to drop.

In an hour like this hour I can't control the thoughts in my head.
It try to block them out, but they are still there.
Right under your nose, when you don't see me, i'm better off dead.
Take my life. Its not like I care.

In an hour like this hour it doesn't take much to die.
Everything sems to overpower me. I'm so damn weak.
Playing in the shadows, where you can't see me. Why even try?
Then you realized its a smile that I seek.

In a moment like this everything could fee like hours.
Objects in slow motion are fucking with my mind.
In the darkness of the night my strenght is devoured.
I've lost my will to live and my will to survive.
