Dark Forces (dark metal)

[Verse 1]
The battle is endless, and I'm torn
Sometimes it's freezing, sometimes it burns
It's not easy, to keep on trying
But it can't end with me just lying
[Chorus 1]
And I find myself in a fight against the light,
I'm not on the dark side, just can't sleep tonight
[Verse 2]
One leg on the blanket, one up on the wall
On my back, on my stomach, or not lying at all
Like a starfish, or maybe a ball
Even like a leaf in the fall
I’ve counted sheep, horses, and giraffes-all whole
But somehow, sleep still won’t take control
[Chorus 2]
And I find myself hating the sun approaching fast
I’m not a vampire, I just couldn’t sleep at last
[Verse 3]
I scrolled through movies, I read from a book
Even the news got a tired look
And in the end, I’m waiting, bored as can be
Declaring this night is white for me
[Chorus 3]
And I find myself in a war against time
I’m not at retirement age, but sleep’s still not mine
[Bridge]
Why does tomorrow rush to appear?
So many hours, yet no snores to hear
[Chorus 4]
And the shadows scatter, light put darkness to shreds
It's not that I'm bad, I'm just awake in my bed
