Sleepless Nights

I sometimes close my eyes for hours but never fall asleep - I'm so jealous of your peacefull state and of the dreams you keep - I stare at walls and out through windows, so deep into the night - As shadows shift and shapes emerge, fall in and out of sight - My body's asleep but my mind's still working - All through the night I'm tossing and turning - Oh you dont know this silent torture; frustration that I feel - A million sleepless night I've prayed this nightmare cant be real
