Sleep Never Finds Me

Sleep never finds me
Only sits beside me
And we talk about what's keeping us up

Just one word out of your mouth
Could soothe my heart and end this drought
So send your rain and lay me down

Well I'm glad to say I haven't changed
But sad to say so much has stayed the same
The broken heart that still remains

Don't let this fancy tombstone fool your eyes
I tried living for love but it let me die

Sleep never finds me
Only sits here beside me
When I need you the most

Well there's safety in numbers
But I always find myself alone
It's just me here with your ghost

And the cage of ribs that hid my heart
Was built to last but fell apart
And now I lay open.

Am I winding up a toy
Instead of building my own engine?
The question I won't seem to ask.
And if I'm racing am I first or last?
And am I on the final lap?
Will this circle end with a crash?

Well hearts like yours, every beat goes on
To the rhythm of a vagrant song
That I was deaf to all along

Don't let my words make you think
I'm doing fine
I'd walk to world for you
Now I walk the line

Sleep never finds me
Only sits here beside me
When I need you the most
Well there's saftey in numbers
But I always find myself alone
It's just me here with your ghost

And the cage of ribs that hid my heart
Was built to last but fell apart
And now I lay open

I could never sing a line
Or write a word I didn't mean
I can't commit if I don't believe

And if that means I shall not speak
Then better be silent than words be weak
Because you can't take back your honesty
