I'm so tired
I cannot rest
The thought of closing my eyes
Just fills me with dread
Time shows no mercy
It's unkind
So uncanny
Tell me why
Do I always end up feeling so let down
Over and over again
I am shown
How unreliable life can be
But I just want something steady
Over and over again
I am shown
How heartbreaking life really is
But I just want a good memory
So can we share
A good memory
I am a skeptic
Always have been
And perhaps thats my trouble
I doubt every good thing
Instead of accepting
Perhaps, there's nothing to it
They say
Visualizing the end
Is a good thing - so I see
A moment of hope
Followed by emptiness
Over and over again
I am shown
How joyful a life can be
But I just can't seem to keep it
Over and over again
I am shown
How simple it all really is
But I just seem to
Complicate it
So can we simplify
Simplify
