MUSICA Cry In The Night A cry in the night I'm still hearing No my love is gone I must be dreaming Lost in the mist of passions strange Wiping the tears I recall the pain Of love and laughter, joy now slain When your world turns cold won't you call my name Come on Cry out in the dark I'll be by your side to give you warmth And light and shield you from the night Hold on, hold on, we'll fan the flames of love Together again, just you and I I watched the faces in the fire No emotion was ever there If this is truth then who's the liar? Your eyes are blind, they don't love you You're just an amusement, thought of with disdain But I'm still waiting, won't you call my name You say your heart is open to loves Call and you can't refuse it's refrain But you don't hear the real sirens song Echoing it's refrain, my love still remains so

A Cry in the Night: By Virgin Steele

MUSIC In a world beyond controlling Are you going to deny the saviour In front of your eyes Stare into the night Power beyond containing Are you going to remain a slave for The rest of your life Give into the night The Night: Disturbed

MUSICNight After Night You're as cold as ice and I realize That I'm loosing you girl what can I do? I can see your eyes and they show the lies That you hide inside that can't be right. Why don't you tell me you don't wanna see me no more? Are you afraid that my cryin' would make you unsure? It's been paradise now I see that guy Foolin' round with you. VVhat you're tryin' to do? If you wanna go you don't need to show all those sexy ways. Girl I hate those games. You're driftin' away and it looks like you loosing control. I knew you before and you're never been actin' so cold. Night after night I've been waitin' for you Night after night in my room. Night after night I don't know what to do Night after night all alone

Night after night: Bernie Paul

What does night in these music lyrics mean?In these songs again, the lyrics convey sadness. Depression. Mostly about love. Losing someone. Losing something. Needing to face something. Not to run away from it all. Yes most songs i researched was bout love, i guess at night time when your alone in bed, or lying in bed next to a loved one you think about love either in a good way or a bad out look. If your alone at night, and you are thinking of how alone you are, you will think of a past relationship, how they lost their love, how it all ended? or thinking about how sad they are. Or thinking about their current relationship. Are you really happy? Is the relationship so perfect as everyone makes it out to be? Is the relationship slipping away from you?.

NIGHT ELIE WIESELElie Wiesel named his book Night, because he wanted to tell the world and let them know that these were the most darkest and most painful times of his life. After what he went through Elie felt angry, scared, alone and depressed and night time is referred to dark and scary and thats why he chose the title.

The Dark night of the soul

-Elie Wiesel

When Elie wrote The Dark night of the soul he tried to convey about the terror, the darkness, the death experienced in many of the nights during the Holocaust.

The Dark, night of the soul. This Relates to Elie as the whole book night is about the dramatic experiences what Elie and everyone else went through in the concentration camps. Night time, usually a time of peace, relaxation sleep, this was not the case.

Night, to Elie Wiesel was fear, depression, sadness, anger, torture.

This is why the book Night written by Elie Wiesel is called Night.By Nateesha Pistrin
