I can't sleep.
Are you awake?
No? Ok.

Another journey I embark on,
another journey into the wall.
Another night of restlessness,
another night to fall.

My gums are distressed,
my nail beds repressed,
my mind alert to my senses.
I need some sleep.

Every error made and every wrong path questioned,
my puzzled mind beats the brain,
If only I had refrained,
refrained from this and
refrained from that.

I cry at my stupidity and how I must have made you feel,
I just want to hold you in my arms,
you're asleep.

I wish you weren't asleep, I wish you would wake up.
