Let me go to sleep tonight
while all is calm, and all is right
then take from me the awful blight
take from me the twinkling light
For when i lay upon the bed
dangerous thoughts flow through my head
makes me want to wind up dead
this cursed life finally shed
If i am to re-awake
it would be a grave mistake
while my own heart should seem so fake
to lose this world would ice the cake
I don't know serenity
I'm drowning in obscurity
Sorry to speak so blatantly
but you're the reason for my trivalty.
