bright at night

As i walked out into the night

i stepped onto the green

the darkness has no light

not everything can be seen

 

the grass it ate my feet

and the cold it made me freeze

as the grass swallowed my feet beneath

the wind it blew its breeze 

 

there is no answer to my question 

i stare up at the sky above

i hate reality, it causes my aggression

the only thing to save us now is love

 

standing here breathing in the air

people have wronged me here before 

but i wish it hadn't now been her

for my heart beat in my chest is sore

 

but i think i understand now

they're in a bad place 

and the question is how 

will i bring them back safe 

 

the path is surely difficult 

and the worst is yet to come 

but im sure ill get the result

and bring them back from 

 

stepping off the grass

my journey here it begins

my fears i walk right past

ill not come back until i win

 

i found hope in the night 

when everything was black

i still found some light 

there is no turning back
