On restless nights, I lie awake.
Mind's consumed; thoughts I cannot shake.
On good night's; I simply get no rest.
On bad; my fragile mind's put through yet another test.
Thoughts can break you; tear you apart.
They make you feel empty; a hollow broken heart.
On good days, it's dreams of something good and new.
But all in all it's a fantasy-something too good to be true.
Restless nights are only a nightmare; that's what is real.
No matter how trusting or innocent or realistic they feel.
It's times like these, I sit back and sigh.
Rather force feed myself to cave to their lies.
Restless nights-I have suffered through enough of your hell.
I can't seem to crack your code, to make amends-only time will tell.
If there's one thing I can offer or I'd like to say:
Never let the demons win, before nigh turns to day.
Restless nights you've won yet another round.
But, again, I stand tall, take my stance, stand my ground.
Sweet dreams and goodnight my dear friend.
I truly wish you well, as I lie here awake once again.
