Restless Eyes

Restless eyes
Fluttering in the dark
At alone hours
Crying tears as a result of constantly
Missing out of time closed
Hour after hour wasted
Trying to recover
Eye-shut deprived
Big bowl soled
Counting every twist made

Restless legs
Hoping to find a moment
Where they don't have to
Run away to feel secure, to feel at home
When they are standing still
Shaking on the spot they stand on
Trying to rid the unwearyness
Big bowl soled
Counting every step made

Mindless games
Played to be occupied
Wishing to forget
That another tomorrow is closing in
Forcing itself to become
Yet another part of this day
Weeks turning into days
Please release me
Counting every day passing by

No matter how soft the bed is
How quiet the atmosphere may be
Living is still hard
And thoughts keep making itself heard
Silence is a state of mind and not the surrounding
