When Nighttime Falls

When nighttime falls And shadows crawl Does it always have to be The way it was before With me in bed Feeling feelings that are dead And a hurt that’s stopping me From living life instead Who can say? It's just easier that way I'm still running While learning how to stay When nighttime falls And my heart yawns I wish you'd smile at me The way you did before My anxiety spreads Feeling feelings with my head And a fear that's stopping me From living life instead As I say It's just easier this way Why was I running I should've jumped your train Then nighttime falls And memories call I hope it'll be The way it way it was before My nervous head Feeling feelings I don't dread There's a spring pushing me To live my life instead Would you say It's easier that way Stop your running And try for once to stay
