Somnombulance Lyrics - Suburban Teenage Wasteland Blues - Strung Out

I lie awake again no sleep tonight, 

I find no peace in the quiet absence 

of the light 

A million whispered thoughts floatin' 

through my head 

A million seconds has passed me 

by in my bed 

One two three now it's four in the 

mornin' as the emptiness swallows 

me on more time 

I grow a little older with every 

second that passes 

I die a little every time I 

close my eyes 

No sanctuary in my dreams, 

no quiet place to hide 

every night I swear it's the same 

And I don't know where I'll be tonight 

but I know sleep will come if 

I walk all night 

It's been a thousand hours maybe 

even more 

since I fell victim to all the 

thoughts I tried to ignore 

Nameless faces and sounds, voices 

screamin' in pain, huddled shadows 

And sirens voices calling my name. 

Well I can't sleep but I'm not 

Awake to this hazy dim version 

of reality. 

Hypnotized by everything I 

can't control 

Desensitized by everything 

that controls me 

No sanctuary in my dreams, 

no quiet place to hide 

Well I can't sleep so 

it's here in the dark 

I'll make my peace with all that 

I've learned 

Sanity's just another dream 

away 

maybe with time it'll be alright 

Everynight I swear it's the 

same, 

I walk all night and never ever 

get anywhere 

It's taken all my strength, 

it's taken all the life that used 

to flow deep inside of me 

So 

in my dreams I'll find my peace 

All of my days are filled with no rest 

Maybe with time it'll be alright
