Insomnia

Here I am again Hours past midnight Listening to the thoughts in my head Will I sleep tonight? The tick of the clock gets louder and stronger Conversations with myself I can't take them much longer I wish I could shut my brain off And my heart would stop pounding in my chest I want my nerves to stop jumping So my body can rest. I'm so tired, but still awake Someone calm me down, knock me out So I can sleep, for sake!
