If I Can't Sleep
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everyday I wake up and see
the same old tired face looking back at me
the glass is looking old, but the cabinet is new
one more night without a dream is what that'll do
Heavy eyes don't lie, I know everyone can tell
that my sences are spinning like a carousel
-Chorus-
If I can't sleep, if I can't sleep tonight
wrestless 'till dawn's early light
If I can't sleep, if I can't sleep tonight
I'm wreckless, emotionless, falling in deep
if I can't sleep
A bottle of wine, a capsule or two
can put my mind at ease 'till the night is through
but I don't need another crutch for my body to crave
I meander through my life one foot in the grave
Carry on my firends, I'll see you when I'm well
But for now I'll keep on dreaming in this prison cell
-Chorus-
Here I lie awake, with a mind that won't break
every night I turn out the light and pray for my soul to take
oh God, give me a break my brain, heart and body ache
I don't think I can go on living this way
-Chorus-
