I arrived back at the house quickly and hopped into the window of my room via the tree outside. I grabbed my violin and bow before I started plucking random strings and swiping the bow across them to create music of a beautiful song I remember hearing online a few years back. Soon enough, I began singing along, my emotions pouring into the word effortlessly. All my stress and worry for the guys going into every syllable.

"Lullaby, and goodnight, baby tuck in your sorrows

Find a way to drown it out somehow

Go to sleep, rest your head

You can worry tomorrow

These are things you can't change right now, right now

My eyes are tired but my mind is alive

My brain is my vacation and prison at the same time

It throws me up, locks me up and tosses the key

I'm pillowtalking to myself

Because it won't let me sleep

Ok, my legs are aching

Restless kicking keeping me up

I'm moving up on the charts, still feeling down on my luck

I'm tossin', turnin', far from snoring, wrestling with my bed

And I keep fighting sheets and thoughts

That won't get out of my head

Like how can sometimes days can feel like years

And years feel like moments

If time heals all wounds then why does it take

The ones we love from us

What's it even matter when forever ends in a second

All of our thoughts and knowledge end up six feet deep with our skeletons

However, to Hell with it

Might as well make the best of it

When you're gone, only advantage is you won't ever remember it

Brace the stakes and make mistakes, one day you'll wake up dead

But till then, close your eyes, lay to rest sleepyhead

Lullaby, and goodnight, baby tuck in your sorrows

Find a way to drown it out somehow

Go to sleep, rest your head

You can worry tomorrow

These are things you can't change right now, right now

I try to go to bed real early just to say I got through the day

But I worry that sometimes I'll find I slept my whole life away

Too anxious to fall asleep, I'm too depressed to stay awake

The drama and insomnia's really messing with my mental state

Think about the night when I was pleading; please don't leave

I could see me in your eyes and couldn't stand who I was being

I fear I'll disappear some days, other times I wish you'd let me
