I wish I could fall asleep Thoughts of peace are haunting me Begging for a lucid dream But my mental state is crushing me TV static, blinking eights Eyes wide open, can't escape I'm not breathing, but it's all the same Is living just a losing game? Can't keep my head up I'm drowning underwater Life is getting harder Will I sink or swim? It's like the days pass Slower than the nights last I just need a break, man Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? (Insomnia) I wish my brain could simply change Like the weather But here I am, it's pouring rain Without a fucking umbrella Strangers are screaming But I'm here all alone The walls come crashing down on me As I... Echo my heartbeat Shatter my lungs I can't escape my thoughts So I'll just swallow my tongue Spilling these words in blood Onto a blank page I swear I didn't feel this way Back when I was young I swear I didn't feel this way Back when I was young Can't keep my head up I'm drowning underwater Life is getting harder Will I sink or swim? It's like the days pass Slower than the nights last I just need a break, man Will I sink or swim? I'm taking my chances I'm leaving my sanity Buried it down in this hole in me (Buried it down) I'm losing the battle I start to unravel Until there is nothing that's left in me Can't keep my head up I'm drowning underwater Life is getting harder Will I sink or swim? It's like the days pass Slower than the nights last I just need a break, man Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? Insomnia Insomnia Will I sink or swim? Insomnia

Another day in waste Down in my own hell Another stumble while I constantly Try to rebuild myself You know that I've been trying To embrace my shadow One foot in the grave And the other in a race to break this cycle I've been dancing (Dancing) with my demons (Demons) If I could make 'em stay away I'd be in a better place, better place I've been dancing (Dancing) with my demons (Demons) If I could make 'em stay away I'd be in a better place But I'm dancing with my demons And so, I slip back down Into this downward spiral Until I hit the bottom And finally rеst within my sorrow And it's an endless road I feel the еbb and flow (Ebb and flow) So tonight, I sleep With the ghosts I know I've been dancing (Dancing) with my demons (Demons) If I could make 'em stay away I'd be in a better place, better place I've been dancing (Dancing) with my demons (Demons) If I could make 'em stay away I'd be in a better place But I'm dancing with my demons Dancing with my demons Take them to my grave I've been dancing (Dancing) with my demons (Demons) If I could make 'em stay away I'd be in a better place, better place I've been dancing (Dancing) with my demons (Demons) If I could make 'em stay away I'd be in a better place But I'm dancing with my demons

Are you scared of death Or afraid of living? Walk into a crawl I've been running backwards Since the beginning I find my grace Where I find my hate In the darkest place Burn it Burn it down And find yourself A torch in the dark A lighthouse among the waves I will find a way The hope of a spark The moment you find your flame In the beautiful dark of life Take your time Pressure makes a diamond Pull the stitches from your lips 'Cause if you ain't bleeding Then you ain't trying And I find my peace In a violent place The warm embracе of darkness A torch in the dark A lighthouse among thе waves I will find a way The hope of a spark The moment you find your flame In the beautiful dark of life If I die tonight, will you remember me? I'll stay right here, safe in your memory If I die tonight, will you remember me? I'll stay right here, safe in your memory If I die tonight, will you remember me? I'll stay right here, safe in your memory If I die tonight, will you remember me? I'll stay right here, safe in your memory A torch in the dark A lighthouse among the waves I will find a way The hope of a spark The moment you find your flame In the beautiful dark of life If I die tonight, will you remember me? I'll stay right here, safe in your memory If I die tonight, will you remember me? I'll stay right here, safe in your memory In the beautiful dark of life
