Counting Sheep Fly

I hold my head high while I cry
Into my pillowcase that's dry
The tears help me fight off the night
While I just lay there lost in my mind
Counting sheep fly
In my closed eyes
Am I alright
Am I alright

Kinda feeling like I'm locked up
Tied down and drugged up
Trying not to give up
Light glares and syrup
Green pills and handcuffs
Not sure what I'm scared of
I scream help but it's not loud
I try to leave and they're not proud
Roll me back with my hands bound
Locked up like a damn hound
Can't make a sound that they allow
Feels like a jail now

I hold my head high while I cry
Into my pillowcase that's dry
The tears help me fight off the night
While I just lay there lost in my mind
Counting sheep fly
In my closed eyes
Am I alright

I keep starring at them through my eyelids
Move around me while I'm like this, lifeless
I tried to confide and call for your help but you denied it
So all alone I tried to fight it
Now my soul and my body are divided
Finally, they don't have to fight for my silence

Are you happy now I'm silent

I'm just a brain dead body
An empty hotel lobby
My pride was oh too costly
But I never hurt anybody
And I'll take that to the grave
To the day I pass of age
Or to the day I pass away
By someone who won't admit that they're to blame
I hold my head high while I cry
Into my pillowcase that's dry
The tears help me fight off the night
While I just lay there
