I´m running in quicksand
Something´s haunting me
The guilty past I buried
My mind won´t let me sleep
I´ll do anything for peace
(I keep on waking up)
A solemn oath I make
Cross my heart please let me sleep
(I keep on waking up)
How much more do I take?
My head is talking to me
I don´t know what it needs
But the loudest voice is the one I need
Insomnia, my swollen bloodshot eyes
Insomnia, awake till morning light
Insomnia, stirring deep inside
Insomnia, somebody turn out the lights
I...I...I...I can´t sleep
Insomnia
I´m twisting and turning
The madness I must tame
My candle is burning
Both ends again today
The whole house is creaking
I know they´re out there
The things kept from sight
I beg to the shadows
I can´t sleep
Insomnia, footsteps on the walk
Insomnia, I hear someone knock
Insomnia, I wish it was a dream
Insomnia, can you hear me scream?
I...I...I...I can´t sleep
Insomnia
