"I'm Not Sleeping" lyrics
"I'm Not Sleeping"
She comes to me at night when I'm sleeping
She comes to me when I'm alone
She comes to me, she holds my head when I'm crying
She comes to me, she shuts my eyes
She brings me home
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
She tells me when you look at me, she tells me when you're lying
She tells me when you talk about me, she lays me on the floor
She tells me when you're whispering, she lies beside me naked
She tells me when you laugh at me and she locks all the doors
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
1-2-3-4-5-6-7 AM
All alone again, but I've been through all this shit before
Spend my nights in self defense, cry about my innocence
But I ain't all that innocent anymore, more, more
I see her on the TV, I see her in the movies
I see her in these animals that dance inside my head
I'll follow you down, baby, down into this valley
I'll follow you down, baby, but I won't come up again
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
But I'm not sleeping anymore, anymore
I'm not sleeping
I'm not sleeping anymore
I said, rain, rain, go away
Come again some other day
'Cause I got all this shit to say
But I've gone back to find my way
My sister's mother's favorite son
Lost among the chosen one
But I've got news for everyone
'Cause I'm going out that door

Damien Rice - "Rootless Tree" What I want from you is empty your head

Matt Nathanson - "I Saw" And it's amazing
With the look in your eyes
Like you could save me
But you won't even try

The Hold Steady - "Same Kooks" They found me in a florist, I was fried and out of focus
I was kicking it with chemists
The scratches on my back, they formed into a choir
And belted out a chorus
There were clicks and hisses...
Eddie Vedder - "Society" It's a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all, you won't be free
Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're...
The Jayhawks - "What Led Me To This Town" What led me to this town?
Room to roam but no place called home
Dazed at first but shaking off the Sunday gloom
What led me to this town?
Such a lazy afternoon
Eight shades of gray and I can taste...
