kissed a goodnight

Saying goodnight to the one that might be

Listening close as I sing of my dreams

Kissed a goodnight to the winds of the sleep

So when I wake up I won't have to play make believe

Waking up, it’s just me, what’s new

Sun is shining but the pain seeps through

Don’t want to get up

I’d rather stay under my covers and sleep

I’d rather stay living inside of my dreams

Reality got a hold on me

And I can’t seem to shake it

Depression is lurking

I don’t think I’ll make it

My friends think I’m fine

And my family is aimless

Been downing these pills

Just to numb into brainless

But my wrist is so icy

I patched up with stainless

And prayed up these walls

So the picture is tainted

I’m tired of thinking

I’d rather just sleep

Goodnight to my demons

Just leave me be

Deep in my sleep

I’ve finally been finding some peace

Saying goodnight to the one that might be

Listening close as I sing of my dreams

Kissed a goodnight to the winds of the sleep

So when I wake up I won't have to play make believe

Laying and staring right up at the ceiling

Thinking I’m broken and not meant for healing

Maybe it’s time that I left

Cause I didn’t care the last time that I checked

Been living my life for what? A check?

When’s the last time that I went out with friends?

Been working so hard that I ended up lying on hospital beds

Collapse on my lung in effect, I coulda ended up dead

So baby, I’m tired of lying, I miss you, I’m trying

To become enough for your love

One that I don’t even know if I want

But you are the person I need

When I fall asleep

I see you, inside of my dreams

Saying goodnight to the one that might be

Listening close as I sing of my dreams

Kissed a goodnight to the winds of the sleep

So when I wake up I won't have to play make believe
