lyrics

Pulse has doubled since the beginning of the night
Mind has redefined itself the uncountable of times
Pacing back and forth with my thoughts all gone astray
I'm drawing lines out on the walls, I'm counting out the days

I'm only out to get myself at this hour of the night
Could it be you're becoming me? That can't be a good sign
These self-inflected worries are drawing out like days
These soothing capsules comfort me and take it all away

Now I've lost all control
See, you knew that's what you had in store
Drifting, oh drifting away
Please, oh please give me more
And just let me sleep
Just let me sleep

My eyes are closed, shut tight, no light could get inside
But images they spin around like reels played in mind
If only I could picture black this might all just slow down
But I'm laying here attentively and listening for sounds

Now I'm only out to get myself at this hour of the night
Could it be you're becoming me? That can't be a good sign
These self-inflected worries are drawing out like days
These soothing capsules comfort me and take it all away

Now I've lost all control
See, you knew that's what you had in store
Drifting, oh drifting away
Please, oh please give me more
And just let me sleep
Just let me sleep

Pulse has doubled since the beginning of the night
Mind has redefined itself the uncountable of times
Pacing back and forth now my thoughts have gone astray
I'm dependent on these sleeping pills, to take it all away
