i sleep constantly
i'm usually so tired
i am right now, but
i know if i sleep
i will dream of losing you
and please forgive me
but i don't want to
wake up crying again and
feeling my world end
just look at me now
someone afraid of sleeping
something i once loved
i don't want to ache
and wake up crying your name
because i need rest
i would rather die
than to keep dreaming of that
it hurts way too much
so i stay up and
try to remind myself that
you are here to stay
