Reprise

My eyes are wide shut whilst my spirit is still awake
I cannot sleep; I’d rather prefer writing
Words are dancing in my head
No purpose on resting
Rimes are growing instead
It’s useless fighting
I hear voices, screams and despair
I see children playing in the park
My imagination takes me everywhere
Pirates, cowboys, trees and birds
I try to reach the old lady lying in the dark
Everything is so real that it hurts
My restless body is in pain
I cannot sleep; I’de rather prefer writing
My brain keeps whispering a refrain
My eyes are wide open but my spirit is snoozing
And when my phone rings in the morning
I just pretend I’m still dreaming.
