I'm jealous of my insomniac friends
I wish I could be them
'cause I spend most of my nights
in my bed asleep dreaming
that she came by
asking if we could be friends again
and I always say yes
'cause I'm weak, don't know what's good for me
maybe I'll call her up and she'll say no and I can sleep
with a sense of closure
knowing I don't owe her
a darn thing
but most likely she'd say
what could you want at this hour?
must not keep time anymore or you'd
know that it's almost four
I'm going back to sleep
I guess I should get on with it then
put paper to the pen
maybe if I sit down and write
I can give it all meaning
wouldn't that be nice
tie up all the loose ends and then
finally get some rest
but we'll see, if things work out for me
It'll be a miracle, if I come over can we sleep
somewhere where it's colder
I'm sick of being sober
could use a drink
Maybe then I could say how I feel
does it need to be said
if it does, is it even real?
will I regret saying anything
i could swear, there was something in the air
or I'm seeing things that aren't there
'cause I know that I'm prone, to do way to much reading
into every little thing, looking for the things that I want to see
