If I can just hold on through this night
I may be able to carry on after this night
If I can just survive through this night
I may be able to stay alive after this night.

This dark night of a hundred knives lurking in the shadows
This ghoulish night of a thousand cuts lying on the pillows
This treacherous night a reminder of your betrayal
This murderous night ended a love that could not fail
This friendless night without any hope of relief
This endless night – if only it could be brief.

If I can just hold on through this night
I may be able to carry on after this night
If I can just survive through this night
I may be able to stay alive after this night.

This dark night is light compared to your black heart
This butcher night sliced and diced my foolish heart
This stormy night that drowns out my tortured howl
This demonic night with evil spirits on the prowl
This eternal night of pain with no end in sight
This night, help me make it through this night.

If I can just hold on through this night
I may be able to carry on after this night
If I can just survive through this night
I may be able to stay alive after this night.
