Insomnia Might Be Preferable To This

They took that subtle knife

Off of the pendulum

Tucked it in between your ribs right under the kidneys

You gasped for air

But you couldn’t make a sound

(Couldn’t make a sound)

And your mind is trying to find a door

A way to make it out

(A way to make it out)

So scream loud in the silence

Caught in the memories

Taking the vision for granted

And seeing now that you made it out of the nightmare

Everything’s falling to pieces

So breathe deep and sleep

And like the wound from your side

Those tears come pouring out your eyes

And you feeling like your going insane

There’s got to be some kind of closure

Something you can do to stop the suffering

Something you can say

So scream loud in the silence

Caught in the memories

Taking the vision for granted

And seeing now that you made it out of the nightmare

Everything’s falling to pieces

So breathe deep and sleep

Pull out from the dream

Take a deep breath

Cause this world aint as crazy as it seems

But keep this in mind

(Keep this in mind)

When you close your eyes

You’re only seconds away

So scream loud in the silence

Caught in the memories

Taking the vision for granted

And seeing now that you made it out of the nightmare

Everything’s falling to pieces

So breathe deep and sleep

(Scream loud in the silence caught in the memories)

Just breathe deep and sleep

(Now that you’ve made it out of the nightmare)
