Insomniac
Tonight I am restless
Tired but not asleep
Too many things to do tomorrow
Too many thoughts in my head
Memories are overtaking
I am losing my mind
With no lights on around me
This hall is so dark, and I feel blind
You tell me to go to bed early
Just so I can go and get up late
Nothing happens in the morning
So what if I am 6 hours late?
You can call me to wake me
At a quarter past ten
And I'll tell you I am sickly
When I'm feeling fine
I guess right now I'd rather be driving
Getting away
This house seems so empty
Without anyone but me awake
I'll yawn every minute
Watch the time start to unwind
Still there will be no sleeping
No, not tonight
Pictures of you
And memories we have
6 hour phone conversations
Forgotten lines
If today were a week ago
We'd just be getting off the line
Today is a new day
Yet I still feel fine
Insomia is taking over
No more sleep for me tonight
Memories and Pictures surround me
I cannot forget your sleeping face
Each time I fall asleep
Another memory erased
There will be no more sleeping
I don't want to erase your face
Maybe that song is true though
Sleeping we are never alone
Although the house may be silent
Everyone is home
Maybe tonight I will sleep for an hour
Just to pass the time
Or maybe "tonight I will fall asleep now
Because that brings you closer to me"
