Losing Sleep -

Looking back, I wouldn’t change a thing

Except every time I wore my heart on my sleeve just to have it taken from me

And every time that smoke hit my lungs just to feel at ease

Just like you live for Him, I live for this

Dissect each word but it’s the point you always missed

Everything is easier said than done

But these notes can’t be written just to stay unsung

You rip me apart

But you were lost from the start

Looking towards the sky to find the throne

But I’ve found a kingdom in my life

A heaven to call my own

Looking back, I’d leave everything

Set up shop on the corner of every street

Sell all my hopes and dreams to every stranger I meet

But when will you ever acknowledge me?

As a kid storms made me feel safe

On rainy days I knew the clouds overhead

Felt the same as me

But these days I’m losing sleep over nothing

The sky blankets the light and it only seems to bring me down

When it rains, it pours and I’m not sure If I can keep my head above

water anymore
