Insomnia
Amazingly enough I am tired
And don't know what to say
Up late at night trying so hard
To drink and smoke my thoughts away
So much going on
So much running through my head
I really need to sleep
Just try and go to bed
I've tried to go lay down
I would even shut my eyes
But I cannot sleep
For me it's no surprise
I am an insomniac
Where you stay up all night
You can't seem to get any sleep
No matter how hard you try
Can't get any sleep
So many thoughts running around
When all I want to do
Is fall asleep once I lay down
I try to read a book
Watch something on t.v.
Try so hard to do something
To get me to fall asleep
Looking at the clock
Wondering when that time will come
Hopefully not anytime
When the light becomes the sun
No one to talk to
Because everyone's asleep
I guess not many have this problem
Sometimes it feels like it's just me
Sleeping pills don't work
My body has won that fight
I wish something or someone
Could keep me from staying up all night
This is my time alone
I guess my moment of peace
Until I start to get tired
And I can finally fall asleep
