(2:51am-3:58am), 3/10/14

Here's to all those sleepless nights
Tucked up in my bed so tight
Staring at these four blank walls
Waiting on that single call

I'm a prisoner to myself
Acting like I don't need help
The stairs creak
My mother weeps
Pulling up my sheets
I drown in grief

My demons haunt me in the night
The angels taunt me through my plight
All I ever wanted
Was the solitude and silence
Or the safety and the comfort
In the idea that maybe just once
I could not be haunted
By this heavy heart

Here's to all those sleepless nights
Losing all the petty fights
Pacing through the empty halls
Still relying on a call

Tied up in a constant knot
My body aches, it breaks and rots
The trees shake
They lie in wait
Underneath the lake
I've sealed my fate

My demons haunt me in the night
The angels taunt me through my plight
All I ever wanted
Was the feeling of another
Or the safety and the comfort
In the idea that maybe just once
I would not be alone
With this heavy heart
