Tired and exhausted
I wish the world would freeze
But my clock ticks
and my face feels the breeze
I can barely walk
While everyone around me is running
I just want peace
Why does the planet keep turning
Night used to mean solace
But as the world turned so did the seasons
Solace changed to nightmare
And visits from demons
Things did get very bad
But I never stopped smiling
No-matter how big the demons got
And how much their whispers are enticing
There is hope in the darkest of nights
I am not phased by demon cries
I have heard them a million times
And I know the sun will again rise
