I CAN'T SLEEP
Night is here
and I still can't sleep
My eyes they strain and my ears hear
The rats in the dark that they keep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep....
Tell me how to sleep
It's two am
and I'm still awake
It's shit I just don't know who I am
Everything is blurry looking fake
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell me how to sleep...
Light in my face
That I plea for it to stop
but only brightens more this fucken place
Maybe it's better rest on the rooftop
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell me how to sleep...
Laying on the floor
Finding resting refuge somehow
My dad snores how I'd want one to store
In my lungs that tremble right now
CAUSE!!!!!!
I can't sleep, I can't sleep.
TELL ME HOW TO SLEEP.......
Perfect moon and stars
and my mind sets in confusion
Must be heaven in Mars...
Aliens that marks bodies in transfusion
Help me sleep.... help me sleep...
I don't care how if I take a bow
Will you just give me sleep and allow
Me to just sleep to just... sleep...
I just want to close my eyes...
Cause my dreams await
Time that instantly flies...
I'm seeing vivid worlds... I can't be late...
I want to sleep.... I want to sleep
So please.....
Tell me how I can sleep.....
Tell me how....
Tell me how...
How I can sleep right now...
and I still can't sleep
My eyes they strain and my ears hear
The rats in the dark that they keep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep....
Tell me how to sleep
It's two am
and I'm still awake
It's shit I just don't know who I am
Everything is blurry looking fake
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell me how to sleep...
Light in my face
That I plea for it to stop
but only brightens more this fucken place
Maybe it's better rest on the rooftop
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell me how to sleep...
Laying on the floor
Finding resting refuge somehow
My dad snores how I'd want one to store
In my lungs that tremble right now
CAUSE!!!!!!
I can't sleep, I can't sleep.
TELL ME HOW TO SLEEP.......
Perfect moon and stars
and my mind sets in confusion
Must be heaven in Mars...
Aliens that marks bodies in transfusion
Help me sleep.... help me sleep...
I don't care how if I take a bow
Will you just give me sleep and allow
Me to just sleep to just... sleep...
I just want to close my eyes...
Cause my dreams await
Time that instantly flies...
I'm seeing vivid worlds... I can't be late...
I want to sleep.... I want to sleep
So please.....
Tell me how I can sleep.....
Tell me how....
Tell me how...
How I can sleep right now...
