Lying in bed my mind still awake
Not wanting my body to get a simple break
Thinking thoughts that nobody knows
My mind like a waterfall that always flows
Thoughts about a loved one that’s moved away
Not knowing if she’ll come back soon some day
A missed chance to tell her how I really feel
Hoping she reads my statement of appeal
Thoughts about a bill you can no longer pay
A phone call begging to leave it one more day
A promise to a friend that you’ll pay it all back
The heartache knowing that you’ll probably get the sack
An unexpected text arrives in the middle of the night
Struggling to find your phone in the dim morning light
News has arrived saying that a loved one needs to talk
Your thoughts now sprinting no longer a steady walk
And now as we approach another sleepless night
The morning sun in the distance not quite in sight
My thoughts begin to open my sleepless door
Unable to do anything I’ve been here before
