Insomnia is setting in/I'm in a constant war
Screaming help in a padded room
Post mordem depression I can no longer feel
Out side of this gloomy abyss blooms the wildflowers of spring /Only I sit an imagine the feel of spring time air
The children they frolick
The men and women they dance
But it's all inside my head
I'm loosin it 
I've gone insaine tonight!
I no longer  find sanity in slumber.
TONIGHT!
I find beauty within hell
My thoughts never felt more clear
