I'm sick of the long nights
Can't even tell you how tired I am
I hate the daylight
The sun just lights up who the fuck I really am
So I live the nightlife
Suppressing my feelings, kicking at the hands
You'd call me hopeless
You'd never know until you took the chance
And said a word to me
Careful what you ask to see
In a moment
We can stop it on a dime
I've just grown tired
I'm out of breathe, bruised up by your hands
An artist, so tortured
Skipping the boyhood, just straight to a man
I met a girl
She opened my eyes to God's plan
That I am yet to see
But why is life just bittersweet
In a moment
We can stop it on a dime
I once made a promise
He was only a kid
At night I hear his booming voice
A melody I'll soon rejoice
He was loyal, he was honest
Qualities I rarely find
A man with such a brilliant mind
Taken early from our lives
At night I see his body
An image that I can't escape
A promise that I've got to make right
I'll dedicate my life
To do onto others as you did to me
They'll always have a home
Never have to be alone
So they won't think
That you're gone
An artist so tortured
Broken by his lovers
Didn't work for them, it won't work for me
Creation is a privilege and it's time to see that
I can make a new me
I know it won't be easy
But I can make a new me
I know it won't be easy
But I can make a new me
I know it won't be easy
But I know I'll make it
I'm out of breathe, bruised up by your hands
I'm lying here naked
But I've gotta know so I'll just take the chance
And show them all of me
'Cause life has to be bittersweet
So they won't know
If in a moment, I stop it on a dime
It's time

Alright man, I can't do it again. It's too much. I'm done
