Sleepless nights

I lay awake at night
Trying to convince myself I'll have a better life
Yet no matter how hard I try
Life keeps on telling me to die.

From the sounds of my heart beat
To the sound of my music
And the storm raging in my mind
I don't seem to notice the tears trickling down my face

Here's to another sleepless, sad night
Watching my body fight
For a past that was never there
For a future that's not certain
For hope that would be broken

Here's to another sleepless night
Where I cry alone
Until first light
