I should warn you
I go to sleep
I know you don't
Know what I mean
Yet
I get upset or happy
I go to sleep
Nothing hurts when
I go to sleep

I'm not tired

But something in me does I swear
I don't remember all last year
I left you awake to cry the tears
While I was dreaming in streams
Flowing between the shores
Of joy and sadness
I'm drowning
Save me
Wake me up
I should warn you

I go to sleep

I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I'm not tired
I just sleep
