Lost in the Dark

I wander streets that never sleep

Shadows stretch and secrets creep

No stars above to guide my flight

I’m losing my way without the night

The dark it holds my broken soul

It whispers truths I can’t control

Without its arms I’m left to fight

I’m losing my way without the night

Neon signs they burn my eyes

A hollow glow beneath the skies

The silence hums but it feels trite

I’m losing my way without the night

The moon would catch my falling tears

Its absence amplifies my fears

The day’s too bright it feels contrite

I’m losing my way without the night

The dark it holds my broken soul

It whispers truths I can’t control

Without its arms I’m left to fight

I’m losing my way without the night

I’ll wait for dusk to claim the sky

For shadows where my heart can lie

Until the dark restores my sight

I’m losing my way without the night
