Tonight

I walk these grounds with lifeless eyes
My body imitates these sleepless nights
The mare is close by
It rises when I shut down
Slowly losing my grip on reality
Crowds of restless figures start to dance around the room
In which I lie when I try to rest
Is what shields me from the outside
At the very best
Through the night
My eyelids open wide
Tonight I'll wake
With a restless mind
Tonight
May rest come easy to the restless mind
This constant awareness
Keeps me in the dark
The ones I love are the ones that hurt
No energy to hold my own
I can't bare what I am supposed to hold
I take the drug that calms me down
I have the drink that knocks me out
But the chemistry, it fails me
Sleep, to sleep
May this fever burn away
And a fresh new mind awake
Let the living creature lie
Let his dreams live through the night
Let the living creature lie
Let his dreams live through the night
(Live through the night)
My eyelids open wide
Tonight I'll wake
With a restless mind
Tonight
May rest come easy to the restless mind
