Tonight

I see my reflection

I don't reconize who I see

Everyday you've watched over me

Tonight I'm alone

It's a stormy night tonight

And the sky is dark grey

Like inside my soul

I'm Powerless tonight without you

By my side

You're not around

I'm not important enough

I've got homicide on my side

Taking your position

This is where you'd step in

But you're away  tonight

And the rest of my life is a blur

I see an empty seat across from me

This is where you'd step in

But not tonight

It's raining now it's poring

Suicide on my side

Not even the drugs shrug you off

God, I wish I didn't care anymore

This is where you'd step in

My trust for you is a blur

Rain crashed down on the roof

But still I'm cold and wet

Not good enough for you

Not good enough for your world

Your world was mine

Not tonight

Oh, I wish I didn't care anymore

Where's your voice, your song

The music is playing

But your not on stage

I was your stage at one stage

Tell me, see me

Fucking look at me

You might reconize me

No one else did

Now I see stranger

When your not watching over me

I feel no need

This is where you'd step in

The love you write, the love you sing

Why is it different when I read your letters again

Different tone of voice

Where are you tonight?

I used to feel alive

Now I'm bired in my depression

Instead of your love

You can't ever tell me now
