I Grow Tired But Dare Not Fall Asleep

Count me out
I'm heading to Ecuador
No more letters
We destroyed 'em all
Counting coins
Bits of copper crime
Stare at the stars
Feeling out of line
Out of time

Out of time
Out of my body
Out of my mind
Maybe I've lost it
Who even cares?
Bury my head
Until this life becomes fair

And I grow tired
But dare not fall asleep
Who knows what will await
If I fall too deep?
Call it a mission
Call it a inner fear
But I am awake
I am awake

And I grow tired
But dare not fall asleep
Who knows what will await
If I fall too deep?
Call it a mission
Call it a inner fear
But I am awake
I am awake

I swear in my dreams
I saved you from a fool
And I was king
But then I drank it all
Swayed off the road
Caring for nothing much
Some say reckless
I say out of touch

I'm sick of the noise
Why won't it let me be?
Fine on my own
But all these hands keep on grabbing me
I'm taking a chair
Taking a stand
Taking a piss
Because it seems that we can

So I grow tired
But dare not fall asleep
Who knows what will await
If I fall too deep?
Call it a mission
Call it a inner fear
But I am awake
I am awake

So I grow tired
But dare not fall asleep
Who knows what will await
If I fall too deep
Call it a mission
Call it a inner fear
But I am awake
I am awake

Let's run away
Let's leave it all behind
Only possessions
Stuff we collect in time
This feels different
Itchy beneath my skin
Can't quite explain it
Yeah I'm constantly questioning
Can somebody tell me
Where the hell is the inner switch?
Done with the thinking
Lay down like a crucifix

And I want peace
In my heart in my inner being
But won't find it here
With all this constant war mongering

And I just grow tired
But dare not fall asleep
Who knows what will await
If I fall too deep?
Call it a mission
Call it a inner fear
But I am awake
I am awake

And I grow tired
But dare not fall asleep
Who knows what will await
If I fall too deep?
Call it a mission
Call it a inner fear
But I am awake
I am awake
I am awake
