I use to sleep at night
Before the pain became so tight
Now my life is full of fright
Using all my might
For everyday is a fight
My world is full of darkness no longer light
Walking down the streets ignoring the dogs that bark and bite
I can never rest my sight
Away hoping everything turned out alright
Oh how I miss sleeping at night
