Insomniac
Explosions in your ears
Light that weighs your eyes
Heavy and on fire
You can't even cry
Forever twist and turning
On pillows worn and dry
Bleeding through your thoughts
Of a sleepy kind of night
Shaking like your hungry
Walking like the dead
Trying to find a way
To beat this living dread
Pills that make you numb
Never work your sleep
They only keep you thinking
Of something sad and deep
So restless and exhausted
Taking off the cap
Fill your mouth with drugs
Sweet dreams insomniac
Light that weighs your eyes
Heavy and on fire
You can't even cry
Forever twist and turning
On pillows worn and dry
Bleeding through your thoughts
Of a sleepy kind of night
Shaking like your hungry
Walking like the dead
Trying to find a way
To beat this living dread
Pills that make you numb
Never work your sleep
They only keep you thinking
Of something sad and deep
So restless and exhausted
Taking off the cap
Fill your mouth with drugs
Sweet dreams insomniac
