The clock just stares like it knows my name
Shadows stretch and play their games
The ceiling whispers secrets untold
In this sleepless dawn
I feel so cold
Why do the stars seem out of reach
Lessons learned but none they teach
I ask the night why it’s so long
Why is life so hard
Where did I go wrong
Why is life so heavy to hold
Every step feels tired and old
The answers hide where I can't see
In this sleepless dawn
It's just me
I talk to ghosts of my own doubt
They scream within but don’t speak out
I chase a light that fades away
And wonder if I'll find my way
The sunrise comes like a thief in the night
Stealing away the moon’s soft light
I close my eyes but I can’t escape
Why is life so hard
This heavy shape
Why is life so heavy to hold
Every step feels tired and old
The answers hide where I can't see
In this sleepless dawn
It's just me
