Insomniac My head races My heart pounds I lie quietly and observe the sounds I can not stop thinking No matter how hard I try It’s like I’m on drugs, all I want is to cry However I don’t, I hold myself back Tonight is not the night for a panic attack I feel drunk Nothing is as it seems All I can remember is flashes of awful memories I am a failure And I am gay Only a few reasons I’m feeling so astray Soon enough I’ll feel better All the pain I have will fade I’m so sick of having to always be afraid Alone in the dark All my tears stream about Everyone seems so peaceful, why am I left out? I hate being so selfish It really isn’t fair People have it so much worse, I don’t really compare Hours have past now The sun has now rose I can feel the release as I start to doze Finally to sleep I soon shall go I feel better having had some time to think That is until it feels like I’m going to sink I close my eyes And soon I’m long gone Good morning world, it’s a new dawn
