When I lie awake at night
Songs echo in my head
Verses bring back memories
And tears fall to my bed
I can't seem to sleep
Believe me I have tried
Moments recur over again
Every time I close my eyes.
Sometimes I get a moment
A few hours reprieve
Waiting for you to haunt me
Visit me in my dreams
But then I awake again
To my hellish reality
Trying to hold on
Reaching for my sanity
Impossible to comprehend
The reason that we're here
When calamity confines you
What's left is pain and fear
Concealed behind my jolly
Seldom am I seen
I'll just remain in the shadows
Alone for eternity
