How painful is the night

On this painful night

of the deepest stars,

my tears won't stop

thinking about my fears,

and the easy mind

becomes a wreck of vivid emotions

with memories

and the mistakes of our time

Oh! How painful is the night,

either laying with a stranger who bares your soul,

or with you, empty and still.

My tears flow without knowing

the future

and I trust the good Lord

and the source of life

that joy will enter my heart again

on this painful night

I tell you I miss you

but there's a void on the other side

My choice was simple but strong

and now the pain of this hurtful night

tells me I'm human and that I miss you

with all of my soul

How painful is this night

You're too far gone

somewhere I don't belong

and I can't bring you back

until you try it on your own,

but how painful it is to know

I can't help you at all

How painful is this night

How painful is tonight
