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...

My overthinking
Do you ever lie in bed with the voices in your head Telling you their next plan Like a disease that doesn’t go away But this time it’s in your head When it’s quiet and your reminded Of your mistakes the ones that never truly go away Sometimes I feel as tho if I shout out...

I Can't get no sleep
I can't get no sleep. It's driving me mad, I'm going insane, Feeling delirious, inside my brain. Swivel-eyed, but it's not my end game, Babbling incoherently, telling fables, lies, Maybe one, maybe two. Some say I'm unhinged, Others think I'm crazed, Certainly not sane, I'm lost in a daze. My mind's a warped maze, No way in, no way out, What's that all about? Distorted from reality, Demented and...

Premium Member It's almost 1 am, and I, shipwrecked in insomnia
It's almost 1 a.m., and I, shipwrecked in insomnia, lie with my eyes lost on the ceiling that silently tells its story, listening to the monotonous murmur of a world that never stops, even though within me, all the wheels have halted with a muffled grind, like a forgotten machine. I've wandered here before, haven't I? In this suspended space,...

Insomnia
Insomnia is a crazy thing, it makes your mind race and spin It lights you up when you should give in My eyes are heavy my head feels dull This is not the time I should sit and mull Over things that I cannot resolve at this hour Let me sleep, restore energy, recharge my power...

Grasping Nightmare
Sleepless every night, My mind's deprived of the light. Even in midnight, I can't sleep tight. Sleep's always in delay, It feels like a replay. Can't rest even for a day, I feel like my body starts to decay. My eyes are heavy, But I can't rest idly. Every time my eyes shut, it's clingy, It feels like a demonic entity. When my eyes are open, I...

Bloody gifts of resurrection
In midnight gazes call me sullen upon my cheek Rousing replies risen bound by chains Lest mercy be tallowed by all frays Lest my cheek rise by an untimely hour Rid my face of discoloured honour Until it shall stalk by the wretched wicker sun's rays O wither upon the wicker's sun dropped desire Feign, o swell upon the imperious...

Even When I'm Awake, I Have Nightmares
I can't wake up on time I feel like I'm wasting my life As the night goes by I'm stuck lying in my bed asking why When I wake up the sun is high I miss seeing the sun rise I'm trying to fix my schedule Hope my failure isn't inevitable...
