Of All Things Bright
Bright…
A bright light…
Coming in the night…
Coming to fight…
So as to end my plight…
This bright light…
So big…so white…
You've come to end this night…
 
This night of worry…
This night of fury…
 
Everything that it takes away…
I know why but I can't say…
I only wish it were day…
 
A wish that will not come…
A wish I make…so as to look so dumb…
A wish that makes me so numb…
A wish that will make it shake, and hum...
 
A tiny sound…
A deepening pound…
Cause I found…
Cause I unwound…
And fooled around…
 
Hating life…
Too full of strife…
Wish I had a knife…
So as to take my life…
I can see his scythe…
Death's only knife…
 
Then came light…
So nice and bright…
It helped me fight…
This horrible night…
This bright white light…
Has banished the night…
I love the light…
 
My only wish is one of hope…
Worrying that you will say nope…
And tell me I'm a dope…
Will you come if I must cope…?
It's six a.m. and I must hope…
Though I know that I'm a dope…
`Cause you'll be gone, like at the end of a rope…
In thirteen hours you'll be gone and I must cope…
END
