I've spent too many nights weeping
and not enough nights sleeping
I wish I could lock up my thoughts for safe keeping
but instead they wander
so if absence makes the heart grow fonder
I'll never know
as my thoughts are with me wherever I go
is that why at times I feel low
where's my peace of mind
it's the one thing I can't seem to find
but no one ever said that life's perfect
I'm just glad that I found my life's purpose
still my thoughts are running a mile a minute
now I wonder if my heart's really in it
I have to pace myself
because I'm not ready to face myself
these visions that I have scare me
but refusing them would be even more scary
so I'm on this quest
and sometimes I wish I could just rest
when really I'm just tired of being tired
good thing these thoughts keep me wired
it's said that sleep is the cousin of death
so I'll only join the family when I run out of breath
