The Night Is So Cold

 Words are screamed in the night so dark and filled with hard rain
Thrown in faces in anger and runaway pain
In the morning we’re both crying and sorry for the things that we said
But you can never go back to where you were before in the end
You can never go back there again

The fights come too often now
And the cuts are too close to the bone
The words ring of truth in the dark of the night and the cold of the rain
And it doesn’t matter what we say now
We’ve both hit too close to home

Sometimes it’s better to just turn our heads
And just walk away as friends
Maybe then sometime in the future so deep and dark
We’ll have a better chance if we choose to try it again

What have I done with our love?
I ask myself over and over again
And the same questions that I ask myself
Are running around inside your mind
As we both try to understand all this pain

Sometimes it’s best just to quit, to just walk away
Sometimes it’s best just to say it’s the end
Too many questions won’t answer the thoughts that lie in our heads
And it’s not worth the pain in the end

This will be the last fight
But there’s no anger and screaming and pain in the night
This will be the last time with nothing bad left to say
As we hit the fork in the road that we’ve found on this day
We both turn our ways and just walk away

This will be the last time
This is that fork in the road
This will be the last time
This will be that fork in the road

The night is so cold
The night is so cold
