I can't get to sleep

I think about the implications

Of diving in too deep

And possibly the complications


Especially at night

I worry over situations

I know will be alright

Perahaps it's just my imagination


Day after day it reappears

Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear

Ghosts appear and fade away


Alone between the sheets

Only brings exasperation

It's time to walk the streets

Smell the desperation


At least there's pretty lights

And though there's little variation

It nullifies the night

From overkill


Day after day it reappears

Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear

Ghosts appear and fade away


I can't get to sleep

I think about the implications

Of diving in too deep

And possibly the complications


Especially at night

I worry over situations

I know will be alright

It's just overkill


Day after day it reappears

Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear

Ghosts appear and fade away
