Sleep

Contributed by cherangele on Friday, 2nd April 2004 @ 09:36:03 PM in AEST
Topic: drugabuse

Sleeping pills has become your friend,
You say you wanna sleep day and day,
Night to morning, not even the sun rays,
Can let u bask and see the joy,
What life is able to give,
What you can receive.

You just wanna sleep your life away,
Eight hours not enough,
Neither ten nor twelve,
You just wanna close your eyes and dream,
To a world you wanna go.

Am I suppose to pity you?
Am I suppose to weep for you?
Am I suppose to scorn at you?
Or am i suppose to give u a helping hand?

Who am I to do all these?
How can I jump and save your soul?
I know why you wanna sleep,
I know why you want to go so deep,
You don't want a resurrection,
Or you want is a meaning in your life.

You want a cause and motivation
Like the oil that drives the engine,
You want to know what you are living for,
But you see, I really don't know.

I cannot provide the answer,
Nor am I capable of a solution,
For you see, I'm like you,
If I can, I rather falter and sleep away.

I wanna escape too,
I wanna jump of the cliff,
I wanna just disperse into air,
Without pain, grief or sorrow.

But don't you see,
I can't control my actions,
I can't control this loneliness
And ask it to go away.
I can't ask God to give me
A path that I can follow without fear,
I can't ask Him to show me
What is the meaning of my life.

All I know is that I have to go and on,
Even how isolated and meaningless it is,
I just have to live.
