to remember why

Dreaming in the night
Eyes open wide
Hoping to remember what I had in mind
Moments drifting on like clouds across the sky
A whisper in the wind keeps them moving by

I'm physically degrading
Mind is slowly waking
In this resting place where I lie
Feeling the restriction
Battling convictions
Everything that's telling me it's do or die

So I keep on
Reaching for the vices that keep me strong
I guess I thought wrong
Cuz I'm feeling weaker when they're not gone

I need me something stronger keep me occupied
Something like your touch that keeps me in this fight
Every time you speak it makes me feel alright
Cuz your voice is way, truth, and life

I can't keep thinking I'm 'gon do enough
Cuz I can think I'm perfect then go screw it up
Everything must crumble in this world of dust
You're the only thing in life that I trust
