It's the night
It's the night that scares me
Because I'm not safe from my fears
I'm not safe from my destructive self
I look into the past
And I can't see a future
For someone this shattered
Am i an undiagnosed lunatic
For fabricating too much in my mind?
There's me but there's also me
I love too much, I laugh
I also stare at my reflection in a murderous way
I give unconditionally
But i also tell myself to take it away
And I've stolen my own tears
My own relief
Why do I paint my own nails in black
Why do i hide the sun from myself?
Why do I fear being me in the darkness of the night?
