The darkest hour

Do you lie awake in the darkest hour
Counting shadows and grasping for daylight
Like I do

Do you know who you are
When the darkest hour falls
And thoughts run countless
Through your head

Tick tock, time is catching me
Minutes turn to hours
And the world sleeps while I count shadows
Yearning the break of dawn

While you lay sleeping
I have fought the demons that torture you

But you'll never know my battle
For you always sleep through my darkest hour
