Listening to the cries in the night
Someone else is holding her close and tight
She could be mine, but he has her tonight
Looking at the broken glass in the mirror
My face just don't seem so clear
Haunting memories start to appear
All around me is darkness
Covering the light
Nothing but darkness
Nothing in sight
Dancing shadows on the wall
Faces in the dark appear in the hall
The cries get louder
Wanting to be free
My heart's beating louder
Quiet misery
Tear filled eyes are all around
There's no noise, the cries are the only sound
Feel hearts beating from the ground
Listening to the cries in the night
Someone else is holding her close and tight
She could be mine, but he has her tonight
Looking at the broken glass in the mirror
My face just don't seem so clear
Haunting memories start to appear
All the quietness
Making me paranoid
Every dark thought
I try to avoid
The shadows still creeping across the wall
Faces still looking at me from the hall
The cries get louder
She could be with me
My heart's beating louder
More agony
Creatures lurking in the shadows
Where did all the light go
Darkness surrounds every soul
Listening to the cries in the night
Someone else is holding her close and tight
She could be mine, but he has her tonight
Missing pieces in the floor
I can't see the mirror anymore
It hides in the dark to mourn
My broken heart
Slowly heals up
The morning soon comes
And that's enough
The shadows start to fade from the wall
The faces disappear from the hall
The cries getting softer
They slowly die
My heart's feeling better
'Cause here comes the light
The morning comes as no surprise
We may now open our eyes
The dark is gone and so are your lies
