Lying in the dark the silence screams my name
Eyes wide open thoughts playing their cruel game
Minutes turn to hours as night turns into day
Trapped inside this restless mind I can't find my way
Tossing and turning the night won't let me be
Hoping for a moment where my mind can set me free
Shadows on the wall spirits by my side
Haunted by the whispers no place to hide
Endless thoughts and worries tangled in my mind
Caught in this insomnia peace I cannot find
Brain on overdrive spinning tales and schemes
Crafting worlds of fiction lost in waking dreams
Replaying old discussions changing what was said
Rearranging furniture wide awake in bed
Stories and ideas they keep me wide awake
Every little detail every single mistake
Shadows on the wall spirits by my side
Ideas swirl around stories come alive
Building games and fantasies my mind takes a dive
Rewriting conversations scenes I can't ignore
Trapped in this insomnia always craving more
I stare at the ceiling waiting for the dawn
Hoping for salvation before my strength is gone
Night's a cruel master with a grip so tight
Yearning for a sliver of sleep's gentle light
With the morning light the shadows start to fade
But the night's haunting echoes in my mind still invade
Shadows on the wall spirits by my side
A prisoner of the night in the darkness I confide
Counting endless seconds as time slips by
Caught in this insomnia too weary to cry
Night fades slowly the sun begins to rise
Another sleepless night behind these tired eyes
Shadows start to vanish spirits fade away
But the battle with insomnia is never done by day
Oh no
But the battle with insomnia is never done by day
