Insomnia
Insomnia
Incapable of sleeping
I suffer from insomnia
I am incapable of sleeping
Veteran
Former military personnel
I am a veteran
I am former military personnel
I was in Vietnam
I saw the horrific scenes
I mended the wounds of broken soldiers
I did everything I was supposed to do
Insomnia
Incapable of sleeping
I suffer from insomnia
I am incapable of sleeing
I can't close my eyes
I can't sleep
I dream
I see the blood
I smell the infection
I feel the death
All over again
All over again
Insomnia
Incapable of sleeping
I suffer from insomnia
I am incapable of sleeping
I relive the war
Yet you tell me I am not a veteran
Yet you sleep
Yet you sleep
