Lyrics

INSOMNIA


I lie awake, lie awake every night
Every night, I lie awake
I just lie, awake, so awake
And wait for the morning light

The creaking house, my beating heart,
Oblivion, when will you start?
The dripping sink, the ticking clock,
My racing mind, it will not stop

My eyes glued tight shut everyday
Each day I close my eyes tight
Each day I’m deep, dead, fast asleep
As I wait for my bed at night

The creaking house, my beating heart,
Oblivion, when will you start?
The dripping sink, the ticking clock,
My racing mind, it will not stop

I have a dream, a dream every night
I dream about dreaming a dream
I have a dream, every night I can't shake
In my dreams I'm lying awake

The creaking house, my beating heart,
Oblivion, when will you start?
The dripping sink, the ticking clock,
My racing mind, it will not stop
