bed on fire

If you wonder why I'm tired
It's because my bed's on fire
I scream and kick inside my mind
But it seems I'm hard to find
And I fall trying to sleep
And I'm told it's because I leap
But I try not to think
You know it's hard when I blink

When my mattress burns
And the demons take turns
I'm reminded that I'm alone
To all, I'll be unknown
The pillow will scorch
My mind like a torch
And all I'll do is pray
That I'll see the light of day

The fire brings keys
To old memories
And they are like fuel
To keep me awake till school
And it burns just to breathe
Each breath just a tease
But smoke is gray
And it stains each day

When my mattress burns
And the demons take turns
I'm reminded that I'm alone
To all, I'll be unknown
The pillow will scorch
My mind like a torch
And all I'll do is pray
That I'll see the light of day

I don't want to be awake
But sleep is tiring
I feel like I'm gonna break
And words keep firing
My thoughts won't go away
And they are killing me
I want to keep them at bay
But they are killing me
I don't want to be awake
But sleep is tiring
I feel like I'm gonna break
And words keep firing
My thoughts won't go away
And they are killing me
I want to keep them at bay
But they are killing me

When I wrote this song
The night had just begun
And all I'll say:
I'm still burning to this day
But the fire's in my veins
And it's melting through the chains
Fixed to the bed
There's so much more ahead
