Pills On My Pillow

(album: Songs The Night Sings - 2019)

Faster pace from systems running wild
Floods of sweat keep on flowing while I try to hide

Thinking feels like I'm walking on broken glass
And the pain won't pass

There are pills on my pillow
There are ghosts in my head
There's things lurking in the corners
That'd be better left for dead

Tell me how could I convince you
Of the visions I've conceived
I'm the modern day Cassandra
Always heard but not believed
Not even by me

Where's the rescue, can't they hear my cries
Trapped in an endless loop, no rhyme or reason why

Breathing feels like there's a boulder inside my chest
And I cannot rest

There are pills on my pillow
There are ghosts in my head
There's things lurking in the corners
That'd be better left for dead

Tell me how could I convince you
Of the visions I've conceived
I'm the modern day Cassandra
Always heard but not believed

My head is a battlefield
And here the good are losing
My heart is a graveyard
Where I lie going crazy

Seconds turn to hours
Hours turn to years
Will I find my way back home
Or stay in this vertigo

There are pills on my pillow
There are ghosts in my head
There's things lurking in the corners
That'd be better left for dead

Tell me how could I convince you
Of the visions I've conceived
I'm the modern day Cassandra
Always heard but not believed
Not even by me
