Let’s break the evening up

Because they’re fighting,

You in the red corner

Fighting with the sheets

Wrestling the nightmares

Shouting at people

In your sleep

 

 

Let’s break up the evening

Because you’re fighting

 

Finally…

Out for the count

The memories and sorrows

(or whatever they were)

Turn off the light

And your despair

 

 

Let’s break up the night...

That was truly frightening
