Reading and writing at midnight Never help me sleep I breathe, I cry then I stop And then start to think Its 1am and I don’t know When I’ll drift away As time flies by I reach a hand But it’s always the same I cannot breathe I cannot scream I feel the words in my throat They won’t come out And by tomorrow I’ll start to choke But don’t judge me For your thoughts are your own I won’t hold them against you And you should know That I stayed there Always waiting for you Now it’s too late And I’ve gone away I couldn’t stand living I the pain
