The Darkest Night Of All

Lisa Germano

Goodnight

How can you sleep?

How can you sleep through this?

What are your thoughts?

As you turn to dream?

I wouldn't know

I never look

These things are hard

These things can hurt

All of the secrets

Nobody needs to know

How does it feel?

Falling asleep so hard

How could ask?

How could I say?

The things I need to

You'd go away

Goodnight

Memory must

Fill you with love

Positive days

Positive years

Older than lonely

Older than old

There's only minutes

Minutes to go

You have to feel this

You have to cry

I can go on

I can deny

This stuff it hurts

Always it will

Now I can ask

Now I can say

The things I need to

You've gone away

Goodnight
