Insomnia

I can't close my eyes 'cause of all these thoughts in my head

Filling my mind with the last words you said

I lie awake now tossing and turning

My whole body aches, feels like I’m burning

I’m starring into the depth of the night

Trying to escape the endless fight



I remember how I prayed for you to stay

Still the darkness took you in, you faded away

You were gone and I wanted to go with you

But I knew I had to go on like you told me to

I didn’t want to live, I just wanted to die

I didn’t want to remember, I just wanted to know why



Life was never easy on you, but you kept going on

You said that it was okay, that I had to be strong

Now seconds, weeks and even years have passed by

But still when I close my eyes, I can hear your silent cry

I hope that you are somewhere safe now

I know that we’ll meet again somewhere, somehow



I miss you!!
