lyrics

It’s 1:48, I lie here awake
hoping tomorrow comes on time
Today was so bleak, it lasted a week
all I can do is shrug and sigh
It’s 2:33, what’s happening to me
every thought just seems so loud
All inhumane, this headache and pain
I just can’t seem to please the crowd

It’s everlasting
this silent sleepless curse
It’s overcasting
and slowly getting worse

Can somebody sing me a lullabye?
Can somebody count me some sheep?
Can somebody help me to close my eyes
So I can finally get some sleep?

It’s 3:25, I’m barely alive
tossing and turning through the night
I stare at the clock, the tick and the tock
numbers of nightmares in red light
It’s 4:52, I’m thinking of you
longing for your sweet melody
There’s not a sound, with no one around
it’s hard to keep my sanity

And it’s fabricated
this simple peace of mind
It’s underrated
impossible to find

Can somebody sing me a lullabye?
Can somebody count me some sheep?
Can somebody help me to close my eyes
So I can finally get some sleep?

I’m trapped in my bedroom with nothing to dream
my fantasies all have expired
I’m afraid of the dark and I’m trying to scream
but I can’t cause I’m too fucking tired
I’m too tired
to sleep…
