I Can't Get No Sleep

by Ashamed   Nov 24, 2004


I lie and I roll as I can’t drift away
I close my eyes but they just won’t stay
I toss and I turn as I take a deep breath
Hoping my mind will fall to its death.

But I just can’t sleep no matter how hard I try
The events of my life just keep making me cry
Though the tiredness hurts and makes me feel ill
The insomnia’s torture, maybe I need a pill.

The light from my TV stares me in the eye
Wow its so bright, it makes me wanna die
I itch and I scratch as I still stay awake
It hurts, it hates. I just sit and shake.
