Alive Dead

When the dead are so exhausted 

From eternally raising from their sleep 

To live in the dreams I keep 

The memories of loss on repeat 

Reinacting the moment when it all ended 

When my life came to a halt 

With all the sunsets never rising 

I knew then this life was erasing 

The only thing I thought worth saving 

But I was too late 

So tonight like all the others and those to come 

I am sleeping wide awake
