Apnea

I wish I could sleep...
I wish I could dream,
F o r e v e r .
I wish I could F e e l
Like when I wake up
Everything would be b e t t e r.
 
I'm just laughing with my Shadows...
My SHADOWS LAUGHING at ME!
I'm just tossing and turning all through the n i g h t,
Shadows Laughing at Me.
 
I wish I could sleep...
I wish I could dream,
F o r e v e r .
 
And when the daylight come
I can't tell if I'm asleep or awake.
 
Feels like,
It feels l i k e,
Feels like I'm slowly ebbing away.
 
And when the night come
When the night c o m e s ,
Them shadows always know what to say,
They saying:
We got something that'll make you laugh
Got something that'll make you cry
Listen to us.
We'll tell you something that'll make laugh,
We only laughing cuz you think you're alive,
Because you think you're alive.
 
They're no dreams here.
This is where the shadows reside.
Ain't No Dreams Here!
This is where the Shadows reside.
 
You're one of us.
You are w e l c o m e here.
You're one of us.
You're one of us.

Author's Note
These are the feelings and thoughts I have when I cannot sleep properly. Sometimes it feels like I hardly sleep at all.
