Tossing and turning
Thoughts running through my head
Wanting to turn them off
Give me some melatonin
Instead of counting sheep
I count the cars that pass by
Shutting my eyes for them
To end up wide open
Deep breaths turning into something more
Maybe if I let it happen I'll end up
falling fast asleep
Screaming into my pillow
for sleep to come
Give me some melatonin
Morning is about to come
And not a wink of sleep
Coffee is my best friend
Cup after cup
Barely getting by
Night comes again
Hoping To get some shut eye
This time
