The Feeling of Night
Just close your eyes until the day is night
And just see how the world can be sadder
Though in the darkness they say you can't see
But they don't know how to look
Because if truth be told you can see better
When you don't have the distraction of the real world around you
And truly you can see better when you can't see
Can't see the judgement, corruption
Can't see the colors, the pain
Can't see the sadness
The people living dead lives
And everyone is equal in that moment
The moment when the sun goes down
The lights turn off, your eyes are closed
And dreams aren't just dreams, and wishes aren't just wishes
Because when one of your senses is isolated
Your other senses become stronger
And you are moved by a feeling
Moved to do something, anything
Moved to say something, everything
Moved to understand better
To make a change
Your thoughts become you
And your breath starts to get slower
The silence becomes louder
And the sadness can't kill you
Your feelings don't matter
All you know is darkness
And all you feel is dead
