Mr. Sleep
You were once my safe space
My sweet escape
I would close my eyes
And travel to where I didn't feel the pain
You were my blank page
Where my little hands
Could scribble a happy future
Imagine myself strong and brave
Able to fly above this living grave
I relied on you every night
To feed me that bliss
Make me think I was alright
Make me forget for a moment
That my life was not right
Why then do you betray me now?
The arms that once carried me
To the land of sugar...
