Somnum from Katharsis by Dromopod

In the stillness of the night my thoughts race
A never-ending fight
Tossing and turning, wide awake
This precious gift I can not take
The darkness creeps, a silent thief
Stealing hours
Eyes bloodshot, mind in distress
No solace in this endlessness

And I want to shut my eyes
And drift away - sleep
Shades and weird colors start to take shape

My heart beats fast, my breath accelerates
As worries pile
A constant battle, with no retreat
My thoughts collide
Anxiety creeps, a shadow cast
A prison in my own mind
A whispered prayer, a silent plea
For just a moment of tranquility.

And I want to shut my eyes
And drift away - sleep

My faithful friend never leaves me until the very end
A never-ending battle I must win in this war against sleep again
The silence is deafening, the night so still
The demons in my head they never will
Be still my mind. Find peace within
The spiral of vigil - I must break the spin

And I want to shut my eyes
And drift away - sleep
I don’t know what is real, the lines begin to blur
