Lyrics by Chris Farrar
Music by Zaheer Naziri

lyrics

Cold and disheartened, silent she screams. The cold grips of death
Cancer again. It takes the body, it take the mind
It takes my sanity it’s not kind

How could you take her from me she did not deserve to die
She was just 49 and now the tears roll down my eyes
I don't know how long it will take for me to be ok
But I will get through this just like I always do

Why have you taken her from me?
I know not what to do anymore
Sleep still eludes me, and I cannot find the right words to say

I don't know who to call or where to turn to, nowhere feels like home anymore (I cannot sleep)
I cannot sleep at night without pills and I don't like that feeling (I cannot dream)
I cant hear you anymore, I cant feel you and that scares me so (I cannot sleep)
I am a vessel lost at sea (I cannot dream)

(Why)

No, come back to me
You are the one who’s silent screams haunt my dreams
I cannot sleep, I cannot sleep at night with these restless eyes
Though I bend under the pressure, just know this one fucking thing
I will not, I will not break
I will not, I will not break

I know I will not sleep tonight but I know I’m not the only one
Who will not dream for the months to come
I know it’s hard trust me, I’ve been through this shit too
Take my hand we can make it through these nights of restlessness
Trust me you’re not alone

Why have you taken her from me?
I know not what to do anymore
Sleep still eludes me, and I cannot find the right words to say

I am not alone,
I am Restless
