Brush My Teeth and Go to Bed

It's late
and my feelings are running wild
I can't control them anymore
It's time to brush my teeth and go to bed

I'll be better in the morning, but now
all those horrible thoughts are loose
the ones I struggle to keep at bay all the time
I need to brush my teeth and go to bed

You can ask me how I'm doing
but you won't like the answer
so instead, I gonna go to my room
It'll be better once I brush my teeth and go to bed

I know it's scary
It's even worse inside my head
but tomorrow is a bright new day
So I'm gonna brush my teeth and go to bed
