Lay Me To Rest
I'm tired now, I wish that I could restAnd not wake with ciggerets and stale liquor on my breath
I'm weary of thoughts that leave my mind intwined in a mess
And I'm tired of fearing madness will be my death
I'm so tired now, and most I miss the dreams
Most nights bring darkness, worse than the nightmares seem
I miss the world where it was somewhate serene
Oh, I miss those nights when I could dream
I ache so much, it feels my bones should break
But there's so much left to do, and much more at stake
Push forward now, whatever it might take
All I feel is pain, no love, no hate
I'm so tired now, just let me lay here for a bit
So many promises I wish I could forget
I've failed them all and the thoughts make me sick
And my time keeps moving but I no longer here it tick
