Can't Sleep

Another day has passed without notice
I'm way too hooked to leave you out of my sight
My neck feels tight, got sunken eyes
Why do you keep me up all night?

I tried to leave you behind
I couldn't do it
There is one thing I cannot deny
I need you

I've become the one
Who never sees the sun
Of all the lights I've seen you were the brightest
Though you're blue

Inside my shelter there's a universe that leaks
Staining space, consuming my days
No, I can't sleep yet
I can't sleep

Closed blinds leave time outside
Another cycle
Your light is pulling me back tonight
To see you

My door stays silent
While we're talking
Hours fly
Another day passes by
I hear them knocking
Won't get inside
I've had enough
There was so much that I've tried

What have I become?
I never see the sun
Of all the lights I've seen you were the brightest
Though you're blue

Inside my shelter there's a universe that leaks
Staining space, consuming my days
No, I can't sleep yet
I can't sleep

All this time
I've been looking through a window
But never outside
At first I didn't see it
But soon I knew
You had lied
I cannot waste anymore time
I cannot waste anymore time!

I can't be the one
Who never sees the sun
Of all the lights I've seen you were the brightest
Blinding me

Inside my shelter there's a universe that leaks
Staining space, consuming my days
No, I can't sleep yet
I can't sleep

I wake the door and step outside
And feel the rays of early light
The air refreshing as I breathe
I'll stay awake
Until
Tonight
I know
That I can sleep
