Insomnia

By Parizo Van Thulare

Each day this i hour start to worry 
Each month every week this time begins a movie 
An enemy to my inner peace rises
The army to my dreamland  strikes

The torture in my eyes
The tumor in my mind
How am i going to catch a train to my dreams ?
what can i do to sleep ?

I'm burning 
Deep down my feelings are leaking 
No strength 
All i do is bend 

I've heard about you 
I've seen the worst you can do
You left me clueless 
You Left me sleepless

I thought it was just  a fatigue 
it gets worse every night when i put down my feet
I can't get enough rest 
Blinking always does its best 

This is chewing me alive 
I hate sleeping like a thief
I miss my old live 
I miss being on my night ride 

Whatever it is  that you cursed me with 
 It had me suffering for far too long 
Whatever deal you want to cut with me 
Just let me know 
I will sacrifice with my all 
 I just want to see you gone
