The Long Night That Lies Ahead

And once again you've found me

In the only way that you can

You've swallowed all my thoughts

And now you're drowning all my senses

And you gradually surround me

As I dance beside McGahan

In this pyrotechnic paradise

You're perfectly relentless

You're simply irresistible

And I answer every one of your calls

It's momentary madness, but I'm aware of this

And I'm a man on a mission

You grab my hair without a care

And we thrust against a wall, and another wall

And with animal exuberance

We release all inhibitions

And it's the long night that lies ahead

An hour's gone, and now it's started

It's far too long since you departed

It's the long night that lies ahead
And you've left me broken and empty

And so depressed

Instinctively inseparable

I'm enthralled within you, and your existence

You lead me down to a darkened room

And we kiss

Increasingly irreparable

I'm in awe even though you're destroying me
For as long as I can remember

I've never felt like this

And it's the long night that lies ahead

An hour's gone, and now it's started

It's far too long since you departed

It's the long night that lies ahead
And you've left me broken and empty

And so depressed

And the room is cold and far too bright

And I'm slowly drifting through the night

Constantly awaken by the aching in my chest

I stare up at the empty ceiling, body starts to drain of feeling

But somehow that's much better than it was before

I wish my mind would do the same
Instead it's screaming out her name:

I simply can't forget her, the woman I adore
And there's not much more of this that I can take

I'm far too scared to simply stay awake

And I'm deafened by the sound of nothing whatsoever

Feeling null, and void, and petrified, and paranoid
For as long as I can remember

I've never felt like this
And I never want to feel like this again

And it's the long night that lies ahead

An hour's gone, and now it's started

It's far too long since you departed

It's the long night that lies ahead
And you've left me broken and empty

And so depressed
