I never seem to get any sleep, I try and I try but my demons are waiting on me.
I wake in a sweat and I lie in my bed, but the nightmares continue to play in my head.
I am not good at talking this pens all I have, I'd rather be all alone and vent to my pad.
People keep telling me I need a safe place, but that's not who I am so get out of my face.
I don't need anyone to say it's okay, you don't care about me so just be on your way.
I pray and I pray for a way to get out, to switch up my path with an alternate route.
I look for a way to ease all the pain, but my only conclusions a gun to my brain.
