Analysis of Tossing and Turning at night



Tossin and Turnin at Night

I can barely sleep; it's so unique
How the devil keep coming after me
Paying me a visit; giving me a friendly treat
It must be nightmare on Elm Street
Evil thoughts got me tossing and turning
Wonder what's going on in the inside;is my soul really burning
Wake up and say Father please forgive us once again
I wonder is there a Angel to take the job to help out a lonely friend
The world ain't the place for me I don't know who to trust
Tossing and turning God please save us!!
