Hopeless State Of Mind

Insomnia

These images
They slip and slide
Endlessly,
Throughout my mind
They hypnotize,
I visualize
Somewhere between dream and wake
I have to remind myself,
They are the only spirits of the past and
Souls of the future and
None of which reside inside and
All of which have and will pass me by and
Keep slumber from meeting my eyes and
Dreaming from my mind
Dependency, you awful thing,
Clawing below my eyes
Dragging down and holding down,
Oh have mercy on me please
I haven't the time or the money
To keep up with this high I Chase
Night after night,
I close my eyes
These images they slip and slide
Endlessly,
Throughout my mind
They hypnotize,
I visualize
Somewhere between dream and wake
I make my last mistake.
