Melatonin gummies every night,
Drink tea or warm milk,
Try to sleep.
But I-
I can't
I try,
And I try
But for some reason I can't.
I'll lay on my side,
Turn to the other side,
Lay on my back and count,
I've made it to ten thousand,
And I still lay awake that night
So I think instead,
And I keep thinking until I can't
I think until I cry,
I think until I'm in the fetus position,
Until I'm crying and mumbling to myself,
And after I calm down I finally fall asleep,
But then the nightmares show up,
And I'd rather be awake,
I take more melatonin,
And it's still not helping.
I just sit there and wait,
Until the sun rises.
The next day I lie,
I say that I slept well,
That the melatonin helps
It doesn't
Nothing has helped me so far,
Only trazodone,
And that has an overdose
I don't trust myself,
So I'll just wait until I'm dead,
Then I'll surely get a good night's sleep.
