[Verse 1]
If losing sleep were any indication
Of the loving that I've missed
I would wrap myself around you
But how likely can that be when I feel like this?
And if life were not unfortunate
And reason blew like summer through the trees
I would stop to let you catch me
But I think that you would find me on my knees
[Chorus]
And it's gonna be another long one tonight
It's just me and my well-intentioned spite
I said someone did this to me
But no one did, there's no injustices
I can't afford to be right no more
I bought myself another bad dream tonight
With these little boys in my head sleeping tight
It's gonna be another long one tonight
[Verse 2]
And there is comfort in a memory
And in roses just before you cut them down
There is danger in most everything
That's all the better when it's not around
And the last time that I had the sense to notice
You were right here being kind
But if I think that you are with me
Then I know that you can always change your mind
[Chorus]
And it's gonna be another long one tonight
It's just me and my well-intentioned spite
I said someone did this to me
But no one did, there's no injustices
I can't afford to be right no more
I bought myself another bad dream tonight
With these little boys in my head sleeping tight
It's gonna be another long one tonight
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Well it's gonna be another long one tonight
With just me and my well-intentioned spite
And someone did this to me—
I bought myself another bad dream tonight
With these little boys in my head sleeping tight
It's gonna be another long one
It's gonna be another long one
It's gonna be another long one tonight
