Angry clouds on the horizon
Moonlight hits my face
Again I have been crying
Wishing for someone to take my place
In a room full of people
Feeling scared & so alone
Pretending to have a good time
Silently wishing to go home
Loving man places his arms around me
Holds me close & sure
Suddenly I am suffocating
Not sure anything is what it was before
Walking as though with no cares
Yet walking quickly as darkness nears
Too late to reach home
Didn’t see the danger near
