Counting Sheep

1am, just getting to bed
The sounds of Toronto keeping me up
And my head, filled with thoughts
That just won't call it quits
Pondering over the whys & what ifs

Just when i thought, all the answers were clear
20 damn problems I'd solved reappear
& I'd like to count sheep
Just not ten thousand times
Cursing the countless cries in my mind

Oh, oh
Tossing
Oh, oh
And turning
Oh, oh
The city never sleeps

3am, still can't shut it down
Messaging friends to see who's all around
And the clock keeps spinning
My list growing longer
But it won't include a good night of slumber

Calculating, the time left to go
If I fall asleep now, won't need 6 cups of Joe
And I tried counting sheep
But it hasn't worked out
They keep running wild like all of my doubts

Oh, oh
Tossing
Oh, oh
And turning
Oh, oh
The city never sleeps

Lullabye

Oh, oh
Tossing
Oh, oh
And turning
Oh, oh
The city never sleeps

6am, finally falling asleep
Alarm yelling "time to get up on your feet"
So i grab the first cup
Shoo the last sheep away
What a fucked up way to start this new day
