Wyatt Loethen Poet Lyric

Insomnia

Silence fills your heart
 as the words
she sang to sleep
make you remember the insomniac night
the altering wait
 
can i ever find someone to fill the silent void
 can i ever find someone
to lift away the shame, an everlasting grace
 
I stay awake
for you to leave me nothing
 I stay awake
 to the void the darkness
 I stay awake
 to bend your silence
 I stay awake
 I’m staying awake
 
your heart is silent
 never knowing empathy
 if apathy is all you see
 apathy is all you'll breed,
the silence filling the air
 not an emotion,
why'd I even care,
never going back
 
 I can never come back
can I ever find someone to fill the silent void
 can I ever find someone
to lift away the shame, an everlasting grace
 
I stay awake
for you to leave me nothing
 I stay awake
 to the void the darkness
 I stay awake
 to bend your silence
 I stay awake
 I’m staying awake
 
give me something
 I plead for sorrow
I’ll bleed for you
 just let me never go back
 I can never go back
 
can I ever find someone to fill the silent void
 can I ever find someone
to lift away the shame, an everlasting grace
 
I stay awake
for you to leave me nothing
 I stay awake
 to the void the darkness
 I stay awake
 to bend your silence
 I stay awake
 I’m staying awake
 
stay awake
for you to leave me nothing
 I stay awake
 to the void the darkness
 I stay awake
 to bend your silence
 I stay awake
 I’m staying awake
