The Hardest Part Will Be The Night

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
