Insomnia (Knockturnal), by honesty_kills Subscribe to rss feed for honesty_kills

as i lie awake at night
wondering when my dreams will take flight
i see the stars as they rise and fall
listen to the wolf with its sad call.
as i toss and turn within my skin
wondering when exhaustion will sink in
i hear the criskets as they call around
rubbing their wings until a mate is found
as i watch time roll by
i see yellow eyes that peep and pry
the silent bats whip through the air
catching moths with agile care
my eyes will not close after a million sheep
this nighttime routine i cannt keep
i might as well switch my sides
become knockturnal, be it with pride.
sleep by day and play by night
i help creat the darkness fright.
