Insonmia

Lyrics by Dave Hargreaves

Midnight - laying silent, awake inside a dream.
Overactive conscious mind, taking hold in spite of me.
Trying to ignore the pain, Calling through the passing time
Troubled thoughts within my head, Inner peace I cannot find.

Never knew the night could be such a source of misery
Never feared the darkness that is holding me, consuming me
Never wanted something more than just to sleep until the dawn
Wait till the new day is born and then to wake up on my own
Leaving my nightmares behind, with a clear untroubled mind
Free from insecurity free from my insanity

But I lie awake all night - in a state of fright
Losing all control - Of my mind and soul
Darkness robbing me - Of my sanity
Fearing the unknown - Totally alone

The morning brings the light of truth, a mystery unfolding
Illuminating many paths my destiny is holding
Tempted by the promise of illusionary goals
Deception leading hope astray from freedom of the soul.

Another day to live and dream
Of all things past and what will be
The future that we never see
Tomorrow comes and still we dream
