Sleep Tonight, by Pocket516 Subscribe to rss feed for Pocket516

Remove this light
Let the sun set on this day
I need the night
Lay myself in a field
You can’t find me
The sky is my shield
Leave me here tonight
You pulled me down
Laid me out
Just leave me here tonight
Scream at the stars
Too far to hear me shout
At least they try
Because you do not
Left here in fear
One frown, one tear
Hits the ground
And I sit up watching the clouds roll in
Feel the rain hit my forehead
Only to run down my cheek
And taste the salty mixture
Now the stars cannot hear me
Lost in what I cannot see
Lye me down
I will sleep tonight
