Sitting awake through the long quiet night
Thinking about life and how things are
There’s a piece of my soul I’m longing to find
But the distance seems so far
I feel lost and alone my desire burns beneath
Not knowing, this paranoia makes me grind my teeth
My stomach is sick, dark circles overtake my eyes
I often wonder if the good things in life are all just a bunch of lies
I try to accept life for what it is
But I often take things for granted
God forgive me please, but sometimes I just can’t stand it
Am I the only one who sometimes feels this way?
So lost, so sad over something I know nothing of
I sometimes wonder if the missing piece is a simple thing called love
Maybe its success, to be able to hold your head up high
We all want those things in life you know, you or I can’t deny
But I still sit here in the long quiet night
My body corrupted with thought
Dazed and confused
My mind abused
I cry away what I’ve now forgot
I take these drugs to ease the pain
Hoping…..my sanity I will soon regain
No more long quiet nights......
