Another Lonely Night ... [song lyric I wrote]

It's another one of those nights
where I’m locked in my room and the lights
from the street outside my window
reflect to times and places I wish I could go
but the four walls surround me
consuming me in sorrow that bounds me
and I wish I could escape
but the radio keeps playing my favorite song
you know, the one that points out all my wrongs
the one I know every word to 

And it's another lonely night
writing songs about my sad life
summer has gone and it's not coming back
at least for months and I know you won't be coming back
but I can't escape the memories
baby, it's just not right spending the night without you with me 

And here I am burning down bridges
the ones that kept me at bay
I’m ripping apart the seems from the stitches
of every connection that I’ll ever make 
because I think I won't be able to take this again
and again and again because pain isn't worth it in the end
it's just another lonely night staring at the past
wishing and hoping I could have those times back 

And it's another lonely night
writing songs about my sad life
summer has gone and it's not coming back
at least for months and I know you won't be coming back
but I can't escape the memories
baby, it's just not right spending the night without you with me 

So where do I go, where do I hide
I can't move on or breathe without you by my side
I'm so used to the moments that we had to share
If I said you were poison, I lied, cause you were my air
yes you were my air, but now
it's another lonely night full of frowns
that will never again turn to smiles
no matter how many miles I search, because all the while
I search for another, I'll be thinking of you
