Insomniac Thoughts
All I see is darkness in this world full of greed,
But I have to stay positive, I need to succeed.
Do you ever feel like giving up and quitting when things get too tough?
Do you ever get depressed and feel like crying when times get rough?
Do you ever fell empty and distant and stop caring about stuff?
Do you ever feel that you’re sleeping too much or not getting enough?
You’re not alone, millions of people around the globe feel the same,
At the end of the day we’re all human so don’t feel any shame.
Now I’m fatigued, feeling tired and extremely weak,
Mentality drained, worn out, but still can’t sleep.
My mind is over active, the brain is always thinking,
I try to shut my eyes but I just keep blinking.
Trying my best to drift off but depressing thoughts keep going through my head,
Anxiously staring at the ceiling while I’m lying in bed.
Now I’m counting sheep as they jump over the gate,
I glance at the clock, the sandman must be running late.
