Goodbye Sleep

How do I sleep when there's nothing to feel
I'm numb
Like icee hot
If that makes you numb
I don't know
Maybe I'll find out in my 9th life
Feeling tired isn't an option in a grave
Where all you do is toss and turn
Footprints in the mud
Cover the last words of those that you thought loved you
Goodbye to that numb world
It is better to be dead

Sleepwalking

I lay in bed
drifting in and out of sleep,
I know I'm not dead,
but I feel so weak.
Send me your thoughts,
I'll send you mine,
I see your plots,
they run through your mind.
Sleepwalking, sleepwalking
lonely I fall,
desperate I cling
to the bare and dirty wall.
Wake me from my dreams,
the ones that chase me,
berating me as I scream,
please let me be.

For a Little While

Only fun for a little while
but I can’t see anyone then
Everyone fades away
into the mist of my pen
I hold it up high
that is all I can do
Just write myself by
All the aches and pains that I feel
and everything disappears
but only for a little while.
It all comes back in time,
comes to haunt me when I sleep,
I can’t even close my eyes.
