The Sleepless Nights
Everynight, i start off feeling really tired.
But lately no matter how tired i get,
I can't seem to get any sleep...
I spend countless hours of countless nights,
Thinking...
Thinking of you, i say to myself at times-
Why haven't you left my mind, you left a month ago-
You use to say, you'll never be happy without me,
Right now, it shows i'm not happy.
But i'm happy, i'm just protecting myself from guys like you.
You always say "I love you."
Yeah, where is the actual feeling?
Why do you have to lie?
Why do you have to play games?
All of those thoughts and questions, and memories-
Cause my sleepless night-
Why can't you just not hurt me anymore?
Hurt someone else. Hurt the one who hurt you,
Not one who cared time after time...
Sleepless nights, i want sleep but you never leave my thoughts.
Why?
Everynight, i have headphones in blaring music in my ears, to drown the thought of you.
It's just the beginning,
Soon, the thought will no longer exist in my head.
