Darkness hums, but I'm still wide awake
Shadow stretch my hands start to shake
Clock hands crawl, but time won't bend
Another night with no real end My mind's a maze,
no open door
A silent storm,
an endless war I count the stars,
but they won't fade
And someday I'm price I've paid
My thoughts collide like crashing waves
Moonlight flickers like a dream Sleep is far,
or so it seems
Every whisper calls my name And someday it fuels the flame
Pillows cold,
the ceiling stares Empty air,
no one cares
Breath is shallow,
heart beats line Drowning deep inside the sound
Oh,
the past won't rest,
it haunts my mind I hear the echoes left behind
I beg for peace,
I beg for a dream But nothing's ever what it seems
My thoughts collide like crashing waves
A restless sea, no shore to save
The night won't break, it pulls me in
I'm lost inside,
can't feel my skin
The light still creeps Endless war,
no space for sleep
Tangled thoughts, a hollow
sound Insomnia still pulls me down
Every second
laced with doubt
Every breath still fading out
I can't feel my rest
Neon lights through the window pane City hums,
but I feel drained
The world moves on,
but I stay still A prisoner to my own free will
I twist,
I turn,
but can't escape The night wraps tight like heavy tape
No lullabies, no guiding hand Just
empty sheet and sinking span
My thoughts collide like crashing waves
A restless sea, no shore to save
The night won't break,
it pulls me in I'm lost inside,
can't feel my skin
Frost and time,
the hour fades Time is lost in this charade
Shadows whisper through the air And someday it's always there
The walls don't speak, but I still hear
