Soon I'm gonna slip away I'm so sleepy yeah I could lay my head on a piece of lead And imagine it was a springy bed 'Cause I'm sleepy, sleepy I'm so sleepy, yeah In the night I feel it creeping, creeping, creeping I can't keep my mind away from my dreams

Don't blame it on me So blame it on the night Blame it on the night Can't be sleepin' Keep on wakin' Is that the woman next to me? Guilt is burning Inside I'm hurting This ain't a feeling I can't keep

I won't make promises that I can't keep I won't make promises that I don't mean You want me to promise you That everything is true I'll even mean the things I tell you in my sleep, yeah I won't make promises babe, that I can't keep Last night I was blown

If you only knew It's 4:03 and I can't sleep Without you next to me I Toss and turn like the sea If I drown tonight, bring me Back to life Breathe your breath in me The only thing that I still believe In is you, if you only knew

But all my friends, they don't know what it's like, what it's like They don't understand why I can't sleep through the night Damn, I wish it, I wish it was that simple, ah All my friends they don't know what it's like, what it's like Feel like I'm always

Last night I heard the screaming Loud voices behind the wall Another sleepless night for me It won't do no good to call The police always come late If they come at all And when they arrive They say they can't interfere With domestic affairs

You can call me I'll be your temporary fix When you're lonely When you can't sleep You control me Even if it's just tonight When you feel like I'm always what you like Let me be your good night

Now when the day goes to sleep and the full moon looks And the night is so black that the darkness cooks And you come creeping around, making me do things I don't want to do Can't believe that she needs my love so bad Come sneaking around, trying to

To make you feel safe from me Tonight I'm sleeping wide awake I can't promise we'll be okay But I'll keep fighting 'til the end I made the darkness sleep again To flee the creatures from this land We're now safe but I can't forget Oh, hard a fear

While the world sleeps under my feet tonight I'm chasing myself in the sky I'll be up here learning to fly When you know that you can't let go And your heart already knows Sure to hurt but it's worth it to be burned 'Cause one day you'll get home Still
