(Verse)
It's 3 o'clock in the morning I would also consider working to make the meter and line amounts equal to verse 2. This has 9 lines vs 8 lines in verse 2. Rhyme scheme should be consistent with what you've got in the other verse. At present it also is not the same. Something to think about.
I'm tired and this TV show is boring
I'm writing when I should be snoring
Oh oh oh
this is just a warning
Cause when I get up in the morning
I ain't gonna be happy to be alive
Black coffee I'll be pouring
To chug a lug just to stay alive
(Chorus)
And oooo ya I'm breaking.....
And oooo ya...oh ya I'm breaking...
Insomnia well it breaks you down
Insomniac ya I wear that crown
Can't shut off my mind it just runs around
I've run out sheep I used to slow it down
(Verse)
Look at that it's another crack in my ceiling
And the faucet has started to leak
Oh all my bones are now aching
All my non sleep has made me weak
Toss and turn till I hear a crack
Toss out my mattress, I don't need that
I'll just hop in my truck and drive around
Until the sun comes back around
(Chorus)
And oooo ya I'm breaking.....
And oooo ya...oh ya I'm breaking...
Insomnia well it breaks you down
Insomniac ya I wear that crown
Can't shut off my mind it just runs around
I've run out sheep I used to slow it down
(Bridge)
I can't believe that she's gone from my life
Still can't sleep cuz my thoughts twist like a knife
Blackened eyes and restlessness come not from war
It's the thoughts and emotional stress of when she walked out the door
(Chorus)
And oooo ya I'm breaking.....
And oooo ya...oh ya I'm breaking...
Insomnia well it breaks you down
Insomniac ya I wear that crown
Can't shut off my mind it just runs around
I've run out sheep I used to slow it down
Again, use or lose my thoughts, but I do like what you've started.
