Lost In The Middle Of The Night

from Haloed Cat by Venetic ®

about

Insomnia and its perils.

lyrics

Something awakes you
You don’t know what it is
But now you’re awake
In the middle of the night
And you can’t get back to sleep

She’s asleep
Asleep like a log
And it’s driving you mad
Sooo mad
Sooo mad
Sooo mad
You don’t know what to do
Lying there on your back
Pinned to the bed
Feeling… helpless
Stretched out in the dark
With your thoughts
Rolling around in your head
Like marbles in a bowl

You get up and go and get some milk
And stare at the light in the fridge
Stare at the milk in the fridge
And the rotting veges and the mouldy cheese
Then you close the fridge
And wonder what the hell you’re doing there
It’s not even your house any more
It’s not your home any more
There’s nothing of yours any more
She’s put fucking doilies up on the wall
And you’re looking at them and you’re thinking “shit!”

There’s got to be something better - better than this
Tunnel vision life
Society’s expectations on your shoulders
And that incessant little voice:
“You’ve gotta do this
You’ve gotta do that
You need to look good
You can’t think that
No you can’t think that…
At all”

You slam down the glass
And climb back into bed
And look back at the ceiling
There’s not much you can do (x4)
There’s no one you can turn to
No one to talk to
No one to speak to
No one to ask
Whatcha going to do?
No one (x8)
