Running
on Empty…
Mentally I'm running on empty
All
my energy has left me
My
head is so heavy
Can’t
even lift it off my pillow
My
entire body is so sore
All
I want to do is just sleep some sore
When
I wake maybe there’ll be a cure
Fall
the demons that ail my mind
Night
and day they hound my soul
I
pray to no avail
To
be free of this mental pain
That
consumes my every waking hour
My
fortitude is gone
How
much longer can I hold on.
