I'm so damn tired

And yet,

I just can't seem

To fall asleep

So I lay still

And let my thoughts

Catch up to me

And even though

I may not like them

If crying is the only way

To finally be asleep

I know for a fact

That I'll take it

Without a doubt

But I can't

Cause I'm afraid

That in the silence

Of this broken house

That they might hear me

And even though

They may not care

I still can't let them know

How much everything affects me

I can't let them see

The pain I spent years

Trying to hide

And I can't let down my walls

Not after I just finished building them.
