Every night you fall asleep to a
guilty conscience, but don't even realize
And every night I try
I try
To close my battered, bloodshot eyes
I think of you and wonder why
You can't seem to realize
What you've done and how it hurt me
I look at you but just odn't see How you can be in denial this long
Everyday a guilty conscience
But it's hauntin gme
This doesn't make sense
I can't sleep at night
Why don't I fight it?
How do you not succumb
to all the weight of your destruction?
Why am I suffering
Everyday a guilty conscience
But it's hauntin gme
This doesn't make sense
I can't sleep at night
Why don't I fight it?
Every night I lie conscious
I've learned to ignore
the dark circles around my hollow eyes
Why am I being tortured?
How can you carry this burden
any further?
Why don't you feel it?

Very emotive. I like your name, by the way!
I prefer keyboards better though . . .
Anyway - I found this a heartfelt write. I hope this is poetic licence, or that if it isn't, you manage to make him see the truth soon . . . |
