Forever Awake

My sky is always cloudy and grey
Nothing really matters to me
Always striking out of the blue
The needle keeps on skipping the groove
Nothing you know is true
This journey's gonna take till the end of time
Helplessly adrift into space
Familiar stars do not lead the way
Keeping me forever awake
I threw away whatever I held
Now I run the show by myself
Digging through the dirt for some gold
Searching for some light in my soul
So very far from home
This journey's gonna take till the end of time
Helplessly adrift into space
Familiar stars do not lead the way
Been staring at the ceiling for days
The choir of voices will have their say
Keeping me forever awake
The constellations
Jumbled up, chopped and screwed
And every single written word in the papers
Nothing but alphabet soup
When the day turns to night, travelling backwards through time
For history's to repeat itself
I find that I am
Helplessly adrift into space
Familiar stars do not lead the way
Keeping me forever awake
