It has been a tough long day; I am restless and sleep-deprived.
The nights I spent awake on my own take so much energy.
Nothing can help me rest; it is as if I needed to be revived.
My solitude is killing me slowly, so write a beautiful elegy.
In the depths of an abyss, that is the place where I'm confined.
My demons and anxiousness exhaust me, I'm sunk in lethargy.
I need a remedy to my sleeplessness, calming slow music.
Promise to come over tonight and croon a goodnight lullaby.
Be the sweetener for my dream, now nothing is confusing.
Chase my demons away, if they protest, silence their outcry.
It has been a tiring night shift; I am still dragging my shadow.
My dreams are ominous, there's something they foreshadow.
The wolves under my bed are howling, making me twitchy.
They bark around the clock, waiting to sleep makes me itchy.
They're hurling insults at me, now the sheets feel so scratchy.
Phantoms crawl on the walls after midnight, looking so bitchy.
I keep telling myself it's all in my head; I wish light were shed.
Loneliness threatens to shred; it needs desperation to be fed.
I keep trying not to let in my dread, but I can't, it is inbred.
Fight the dangers which lie ahead; be courageous in my stead.
Promise to come over tonight and croon a goodnight lullaby.
Be the sweetener for my dream; make it taste like ice cream.
