Endless Insomnia

I lay awake tonight, like most nights,

And wonder if you’re sleeping

All the dreams and all the secrets,

If they were anything worth keeping,

Keeping up playing the fool,

Keeping up with loving you,

Like most nights that I lay awake and wonder.

I lay awake tonight, ’til daylight,

While sunshine starts to creep in,

The world wakes up and comes to life,

But I’m still stuck here thinking,

I think about the mess you made,

Think and analyze each small mistake,

Like most mornings that I’m still awake, I ponder.

I lay in bed, mid-day, like most days,

After nights when I can’t sleep.

When all the answers that I crave elude me,

And it gets hard to believe,

Believe I even trusted you,

That I was blind to ugly truths.

Long nights lead to restless evenings, I start over.
