SILENCE AND SLEEP [Lyrics in the description]

Описание: [Intro]
(Repeated Ticking) [x12]

A tick tick tick of a clock, will it ever stop (I hope)
Sounds of a dripping faucet that won't stop a drop
The HUM of a forced air heater, does a lot (hum)

[Verse 1]
Laying in bed staring at a ceiling at 2am wide awake (wide awake)
Tossing and turning, this as my mind fights and breaks
As I lay here in silence, wonder if your brain can feel aches (It hurts)
I'm proof, you can lay there in the dark til day's break

[Hook]
(Repeated Ticking) [x12]

[Verse 2]
Unable to sleep, frustration sets in, I slam my fist (fist!)
I need my sleep, sleepless days continue to persist
Don't understand why my brain fights sleep, and continues to resist (resist)
"Do I reach for something?" That'll aide and provide an assist?

[Hook]
(Repeated Ticking) [x9]

[Verse 3]
As I fight to fall back to sleep, anger and pain, as I cry (tears fall)
"I want to dream!" Clench my comforter as tears fall from eyes
"Why me!?" I ask. I just want quality of sleep. Why oh why?! (why?!)
Letting hours of peaceful and comfortable sleep, go by.

[Hook]
(Repeated Ticking) [x12]

[Verse 4]
Often I lay here, see silhouettes and shadows, "are they angels?"
Or the devil's counterparts, like Lucifer. I feel fear, "am I in danger?" (watch out)
Eerie feeling, cold hand on a shoulder. Unknown like a stranger.
Need to overshadow these souls, create some space like a neighbor (Leave!)

[Outro]
I struggle in silence and in the dark (in the dark)
"When will it ever stop?" I end with a question mark
