No sleep aid for me tonight
Just a weary mind with my body dragging behind
I can feel a thought-filled sleepless night
When the morning comes I'm thankful
One day closer to where I want to be
A day closer of where I'm needed
Not just another day
I look to my past which is now my future
My boys so close yet farther than I need
My feeling of desperation subsides
To the realities of many unknown facts
My family had adopted me
Taken me in and held me close
Someday soon I'll cut my loving ties
A trip to somewhere and nowhere at all
I held out my hand once, it was slapped down
I held out my hand a second time
I chopped the other hand to make it right
No hands ,no rings just wasted dreams
Feeling a dizzy spin in my head today
I went for a lonely drive today
The tight and twisty roads of my life
Where I had tempted death before
It brought out exhilarating emotions
My ear pieces with music blaring loud
With each turn something deadly warned
So I sold the bikes and tried to grow up
So much shared and how much I cared
To include you in my hobbies
You gave your all before our fall
Tattoos that no longer exist
I saw a picture on the mantle
Which made me proud and sad all in one
A journey that I should have shared with you
But instead it's dinner for one
A day away,a world away
It all feels the same to me
A child loses their innocence in life
While a man tries to ruin his own
