Sleep


The greatest of all the new
And when there is no pain
I must be losing sleep
And having a light about what I keep
This can't go on anymore
This mess an open door
And when there is no pain
The defeat of my words
The feeling reassures
I am one whose lost
No matter what the cost
The greatest of all the new
And when there is no pain
I must be losing sleep
I don't have anything left to say
Not even in the time of day
The world is all wrong
With my last breath gone
The greatest of all the new
And when there is this pain
I'm not losing sleep
I'm not losing sleep...
