Sometimes your doubts get the best of you.

MIDNIGHT RISING

Dreams are fading faster than I can push them away
Billowing out in clouds of shimmering grey
And the old familiar feeling
Scratchy and hot against my skin
Try to stay out but I know I’m in

Midnight rising
In a moonlit town
The more it rises
The more I’m on the ground
No following my heart
When it’s falling apart
Midnight rising
Brings me down

Mirror images don’t show my reflection
And I’m too far gone for introspection
Hidden fears and crazy thoughts
See what the darkness has brought
Know I should be better but I’m not

Midnight rising
In a moonlit town
The more it rises
The more I’m on the ground
No following my heart
When it’s falling apart
Midnight rising
Brings me down

Soon the strongest will will bend
The sun will come to make amends
And I’ll be digging this hole ‘til then
