I CRIED

Last night, in the darkness I cried.
I cried in silence as always.
Because the person who should hear me is not here.
What is the use of this well of sorrow if it does not bring you to me?

Last night, in the darkness I cried.
I cried because I ran to you for a chat
But my excitement was met by the cold truth
That you are not here to hear me out anymore.

Last night, in the darknes I cried.
I cried because I sang for you and you did not hear.
I poured out my heart to you but it did not matter.
You left, and then music became sharp, piercing and haunting.

Last night, in the darkness I cried.
I cried because I failed.
I failed to hold your hand
I failed to catch your heart.

Last night, in the darkness I cried.
I cried because of the words that were said
I cried most of all because of the words left unsaid
Tonight, there were letters but they were mime

Last night, in the darkness I cried.
I cried because you don't know who you are.
I cried to pay you a tribute.
I cried to remember.
