Its happening again, another one of these cycles I am stuck in
The darkness has taken stage and the sun has called it a day
On this night I refuse to let the darkness whisk me away
I say that and then suddenly it all begins
The light retreats and the darkness takes round one from me
I toss and turn as I lay on the ground
It knocked me right out and knocked me right down
I get a whiff of life and suddenly I start to come around
I open my eyes and jump to my feet
I’m about to hand darkness an awful defeat
Tonight won’t be the night and today won’t be the day
That darkness comes and whisks me away
My internal clock is off, I am awake all night
In fact its the most confusing time in my life
My body says sleep and my soul says go
And every night me and darkness come to blows
I know I gotta get it in, I can feel the force of darkness he is trying to win
Time is precious and I don’t waste mine
For the times darkness won
I am trying to take that back
It’s five o’clock somewhere, I’m trying to be there
Time after time this happens again
And I am sure it will until time stands still
Me and time engaged in a battle for mine, you say sleep and I say not me
It happens again the cycle I am stuck in.
High on my own supply and unable to come down
The battle rages on between darkness and light for control of my nights.
My place is standing up not lying down
Feels good to be alive darkness or light its all the same in my sight, an opportunity for life.
Me and Time Engaged In A Battle For Mine
