Insomniac

As soon as the lights go out, my mind begins to race
Devils start to come around me and tease my brain
Tease my brain
Although I should be asleep, my eyes stay aware
And my heart speeds up, it feels like it’ll break
Though my body’s tired, my mind is awake
Laying in the dark, and staring at the night
What do I have to do to make everything alright?
Waiting for the end to come, the seconds tick away
Wondering where the next step is I’m going anyway
Can’t stop being this way although I’ve tried and tried
Can’t stop myself from always asking why
Always asking why
I’m drawn to what I see all across my dreams
I’ve learned that not everything is anything it seems
Waiting for the end to come, the seconds tick away
Wondering where the next step is I’m going anyway
