You are only
Required
For one night
So I can prove
To myself
That I’ll be alright
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
You are only
Required
For one night
So I can prove
To myself
That I’ll be alright
Another winters night
Passes me by
As I lie here and think
Why me God, why?
I did everything
That you asked
Completed each
And every task
And yet here I am
All alone
With nowhere safe
To call my home
Wondering what else
I have to do
To feel anything other
Than contempt from you
