Watching the clock is always painful
Cut the cord, turn out the light
Stare at the ceiling, hear her breathing
Can't force myself to close my eyes
Listen to the sounds of the night around me
Lamenting that sedation never found me
Cigarette burning in the midnight air
Desiring rest that simply is not there
The blessing of sleep is lost on those who obtain it
My thoughts are racing and I can't fucking take it
Killing time until the sun finally rises
Gritting my teeth over my compromises
The good times have faded, left in the dark alone
The walls start to cave in, I no longer feel at home
Drive through the night with no place to go
The abyss that calls me has an endless depth
It's a peaceful slumber that I'll never know
My eyes are heavy but I cannot rest
Spinning my wheels and getting nowhere
Smoke in my eyes, I don't care
Drowning in a sea of black
Watch the clouds, don't look back
I look forward to seeing tomorrow
Let sunlight come and chase away my sorrow
Forever fighting to return to my dreams
What's dead and gone will always be

Deprivation

Counting the hours as I sit here awake
Nervously picking as my hands start to shake
The forest is burning for as far as I can see
Disconnected from reality
This night won't end
The insects crawl across the walls
I swear to god I feel them all
My thoughts destroyed by the howling of dogs
My vision is clouded by the densest of fogs
The fingers that touch my skin are fucking rotting
The flies are buzzing and the walls are talking
Coyotes follow me like prey that they're stalking
Can't reach my home if I'm only walking
Memories of the past have me engrossed
It's only me here with all my ghosts
The sun will never shine
Corpses hanging from the branches of trees
They only want me
Buried alive inside my head
There is no peace until I'm dead
I bite my tongue and hold my breath
Until the sun no longer sets
