how to go to sleep

I don't know if i know
How to go to sleep
I get home i wash out the bad taste in my mouth
From the last few weeks

Funny how i still feel like a child
Everytime that i brush my teeth
Thinkin' bout all the times
I didn't recognize who i saw in the mirror
'Then you came along

Every night when i crawled into my bed
You know i used to get in my own head
Matter time before i'd start to get upset
Preoccupied with the shit that don't make sense

Like tell me why we wake up in the morning
Pass the time doing shit that means nothing to us
All the days are the same and its awful
And then we wake up and we do it all over

And i know that's right but it's just hard to admit
If i close my eyes does that make me a hypocrite
Awake is alive but sometimes i get tired of it
I don't wanna die and see that i had never lived

But now i just sigh and you smile when you hear it
Since you're in my life everything seems to make sense
I know i'm alive, no i don't have to question
The day turns to night and i'm glad that i had it

If viktor was here he'd tell me gain perspective
He's look at me and he'd say don't you forget
Just look and see who is with you in your bed
So don't worry about being meaningless

There is your meaning you finally found it

Finally i recognize
Who i see in the mirror
Those are two tired eyes
But their vision is clear

See that kid start to grin
'Cause they know that they're free
You are not your past life
You are a human being

You don't look like that child
Who didn't realize
What it meant to be living

Just like day turns to night,
The pain will leave your eyes
Your life will keep going.

Now i know, know for sure
How to go to sleep
It's so much easier
Now that you're with me
