Try to sleep
I try to sleep at night
I try to close my eyes
I try to rest my mind
But I have lost the fight
Tossing and turning in bed
I can't seem to sleep
I just want to rest
I hope and I pled
I want to be free from this pain
I want to be okay in life
I want to be a simple man
But instead I go insane
All alone in the dark
I'm trying to survive
I'm trying to hold on
I just need a spark
But instead I drift away
My memory it will fade
All the mistakes I made
I don't know what to say
I'm locked in my cage
I don't see a way out
Stuck living the same way
Lost and forgotten on the page
I try to close my eyes
I try to rest my mind
But I have lost the fight
Tossing and turning in bed
I can't seem to sleep
I just want to rest
I hope and I pled
I want to be free from this pain
I want to be okay in life
I want to be a simple man
But instead I go insane
All alone in the dark
I'm trying to survive
I'm trying to hold on
I just need a spark
But instead I drift away
My memory it will fade
All the mistakes I made
I don't know what to say
I'm locked in my cage
I don't see a way out
Stuck living the same way
Lost and forgotten on the page
