#1
I can't get to sleep
#2
I think about the implications
#1
Of diving in too deep
#2
And possibly the complications
#1
Especially at night
#2
I worry over situations
#1
I know will be alright
#2
Perhaps it's just imagination
#3 #4
Day after day it reappears
#3 #1
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
#2 #5
Ghosts appear and fade away
Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation
At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night
From overkill
Its my second song with no mystakes enjoy it.
