Lyrics
Lying awake again
Trying to make sense again
Of all of the shapes in the darkness
Hear the tick tock again
It’s just the clock again
Telling me time is escaping
And I feel so alone
White noise inside drones
Too tired to close my eyes
Be still internalize
Can’t bother them with my problems
Trying to calm my mind
With some words designed
To forget all these worries
And I feel so alone
White noise inside drones
Must get some sleep again
Pray for some sleep again
Can’t go on this way much longer
Cover my eyes again
Cover my ears again
Voices just keep getting stronger
To sleep maybe to dream
To sleep before I…
No bottle of little sheep
To send me off to sleep
No pills are in my possession
The monster beneath my bed
Has crept into my head
Sleep has become my obsession
And I feel so alone
White noise inside drones
