Rewrite of Bon Jovi's The Hardest Part Will Be The Night
In the gut wrenching heat of this devil's night
The monsters rule the streets
With iron fists
Dripping with fresh blood
Old and young alike
Know no escape
From the pain
Tried so hard
To fight back
To walk tall
Till they were knocked down small
Without a prayer
No belief in a God above
How can we hope to carry on?
When it seems
Lost to the fire
Lost to the very pits of Hell
We're all going down....
Darkness must fade
Light must return
Someday we must take back
Our zombie infested city
Let those who are dead
Go hungry
Send them back to that graven place
Never again speak of the unholy ones
By name
Forever shut back their eyes
Live our own lives again
Not so paralyzed
Won't soon again be death's pawns
In a losin' game
Where we have only
Our own foolish selfs to blame
When we hear their agonzied cries
It is then the worst
Haunted by our own lies
The hardest part we know will be
Survining the night
In the cruel night
We sacrified so we could
Be the ones to live
How guilty we feel
When we hear those God awful cries
In the most wicked night
How can any of this be right?
We pray to stay alive
But still the memory haunts us
And we know
The hardest part will be the night
The hardest part will be surving the night
The night...
All alone
In this hellish place
Where the dead remain still moving
And so damn hungry
One and all
We've walked through
A pure acid rain
Feeling betrayal's pain
We've danced
So close
Maybe too close
To that razor fine edge
Did we really?
Did we really have to give them up?
For this nightmare to end
For us to still go on breathing
Was there any other way then running away?
While they ate up our best friends
Chorus
These 4 walls around are so bitter
Angry and taunting
They whisper such heart breaking stories
About our lying
Innocents dying
Damn shame
Too much blame
So high the price
We did pay
And for what?
In living through this horror
Where is there any glory?
Losing
Chosing
Us over them
Our eternal gain
Over their temportary pain
Chorus
