It was a quiet night
without the voices in my head
the rain has stopped
pain ensues to where it bled

And bled, it did
—I know no respite
from the trouble
I kept getting despite

It was a quiet night
as there's no room for more
of my wails in the dark
Do I bother keeping score?

And score, I did
—there is no one to blame me
for the trouble I brought
to my own soul and body

It was a quiet night
enough to tell me to stop listening
to the sharp and deadly thoughts
in my head that I keep believing

And believe, I did
—carried with me the hope
that tomorrow will be better
but then, all I do is just cope

It was a quiet night
free from all the bonds
upon myself—I'm free

It was a quiet night
and I hope and hope
it won't be taken from me
