Sleepwalk

Sleepwalk

By

Nathan Caleb Camerer

Insomnia

You cruel bedfellow

You strange mistress

I think I have those wrong

My mind just ain’t what it used to be

Flashbacks of you

Flash forwards of a fool

I’m sleepwalking thru my days

Dazed and confused

What day is this?

What month are we in?

Am I coming or going?

Are you coming or going?

Flashbacks of you

Flash forwards of a fool

I’m sleepwalking thru my life

Dazed and confused

This ocean of chaos is taking it’s toll

I’m frozen in place

My lips have turned blue

Standing in an oasis

In the middle of the desert

With cottonmouth because I can’t drink the water

These flashbacks of you

These flash forwards of a fool

They have me sleepwalking thru my days

Dazed and confused

Fantasy and reality

Dreams and nightmares

Interwoven into one long trip

The end is in sight though

Flashbacks of you

Flash forwards of a fool

I won’t sleepwalk thru life

This daze and confusion will pass

The end is near

Sleep is coming
