Never gonna sleep again
the silence seems alive to me and I feel it approaching
the darkness seems no friend to me and I fear it encroaching
I've been up for days, I've been walking the floor
I've been out of my mind, I don't know any more
I've been out on the street and I ain't found my way
and I guess I'll never sleep again...
no sleep of the babes
and never will I play pretend
that it'll all go away by the light of day
I have the same dream every night
and the same conversations each day
when I get back Home, no one calls, no one does,
and no one will until they need something
I can't fall asleep, I don't know what I might say
what dark secret I might give away
I can't fall asleep, I don't know where I might go
if I don't wake up when the morning comes
I've been holding on to dreams I should've let go
I guess I'm holding out for something
I've been keeping my eye on a bridge I should burn
but I guess I'll never, ever learn
I'm not saying that I'm feeling sick
but I've been hearing that voice again
the echo of every stupid thing I've ever said
and I've been trying to shut it up
I don't need that stuff getting out
I've got to keep it all well inside me, down way in
before my senses can run away from me again
I can't fall asleep, I don't know what I might say
what dark secret I might give away
I can't fall asleep, I don't know where I might go
if I don't wake up when the morning comes
I'm never gonna sleep again, never gonna sleep again
