Sleeping in I never liked When I was a spirited kid I was too anxious for the day For new memories to begin Now I look back and wonder How sleep became my solace When did it all change? When did I learn to fear? It used to be the unconsious trap That I wished I could avoid Now I yearn daily for it I'm addicted to its silent comfort To take a break from it all Believing morning will bring change There are chances of new memories Ones that aren't so happy, that I fear I don't want them I don't want them stuck with me I can handle my life now But I'm afraid of what may come When my past catches  up Fulfilling the possibilities I've denied Too many thoughts swirling in my head It's exhausting Sleep, please come rescue me Keep me okay for now

Sleeping In
Sleeping in I never liked When I was a spirited kid I was too anxious for the day For new memories to begin Now I look back and wonder How sleep became my solace When did it all change? When did I learn to fear? It used to be the unconsious trap That I wished I could avoid Now I yearn daily for it I'm addicted to its silent comfort To take a break from it all Believing morning will bring change There are chances of new memories Ones that aren't so happy, that I fear I don't want them I don't want them stuck with me I can handle my life now But I'm afraid of what may come When my past catches  up Fulfilling the possibilities I've denied Too many thoughts swirling in my head It's exhausting Sleep, please come rescue me Keep me okay for now
