Forgotten Lullaby

I lie awake in bed
Staring at a blank ceiling
Hearing all the sounds around me
Humming a forgotten melody

I don’t know where I know it from
But it’s always in my head
Echoing in my thoughts
Telling me a story

Maybe it’s from some past life
If you believe in reincarnation
Maybe I just heard it on the radio
If you’re not into fate

All I know is that it’s always there
In my mind
Playing itself into my thoughts
Bothering me to no end

So now I lie here
Willing sleep to embrace me
Forcing my eyes to close
Snuggling into the blanket

The song is still there
Deep within the holes of my mind
A forgotten lullaby
Softly lulling me into dreamland
