Eyes open I’m wide awake
I feel I’m in a coma state
I lay here on my back and watch the fan turn
Conversations cross my mind
but not that of the speaking kind
T.V. images repeat their one line
Back and forth
I toss and turn
It feels like strings are holding up my eyes
I’d kill to fall asleep
I’m putting up a losing fight
I’ll never see this end tonight
The thought of just one dream, it consumes me
Numbers on the clock turn back
My pills are having no effect
The beating of my heart keeps the time going
Back and forth
I toss and turn
It feels like strings are holding up my eyes
I’d kill to fall asleep
They say that when you sleep you body’s at rest
I wouldn’t know what sleep felt like if I tried my best
If polaroids and memories can fade away
So can I…
Back and forth
I toss and turn
It feels like strings are holding up my eyes
I’d kill to fall asleep
