A better part of me.

A song that I wrote recently; when i couldn't sleep; at about 3:15 in the morning...

Hope you like it.

"A Better Part Of Me"

I'm trying to close my eyes from,

Such an endless and dreary day.

Into a good night's sleep that would,

Hopefully rub this wariness away.

Sedimented thoughts, in my head,

And I keep losing count of sheep.

My eyes are awake as my mind ticks on;

And I can't seem to go to sleep.

CH:

Why does life, seem so slow?

Yet time ticks by so fast.

Why does joy erase so easily?

While guilt and sorrow, lasts.

I try; but why can't I let go,

Of all these thoughts and memories?

Why can't I just sleep and wake up,

To a better part of me?

. . .

Reviewing mistakes I once made;

Through work done in haste, or left incomplete.

I'd say it's "learning from my past";

But in reality, I'm stuck in it.

The night mocks my insomnia;

The clock ticks surely, to remind.

No matter how much I cherish the present;

It's gonna be the past; I'll try leaving behind.

CH:

Why does life, seem so slow?

Yet time ticks by so fast.

Why does joy erase so easily?

While guilt and sorrow, lasts.

I try; but why can't I let go,

Of all these thoughts and memories?

Why can't I just sleep and wake up,

To a better part of me?
