Lamplight

I'm sitting, lying, waiting
Seconds ticking by and I wish
Wish for the light in from window
To fade away
The mirror shining in the lamplight
From the street lamps outside
I toss and turn
In the street lamp dawn

I wanna sleep
I need to sleep
I need to wake up in the morning
I wanna sleep
Why can't I sleep

I'm sleeping in 'til noon
Because I do not sleep until five
I'm missing classes, missing chances
To figure it out
Is it just stress or is it fear
Or something angrier still
All I know is that I can't sleep
In the street lamp dawn
Dawn

Street
Street lamp dreams
Street lamp dreams
Street lamp dawn
Street lamp dawn
Sleep
Sleep all day
Sleep all night
Sleep

I wanna sleep
I need to sleep
I need to wake up in the morning
I wanna sleep
Why can't I sleep
Give me some sleep

Kiss of sleep
Kiss of relief
I wanna sleep
Some relief
Just a little sleep
When it's still dark out

I want sleep
Give me sleep
Just a dream or two, please
Give me some time in the night
Time to rest to sleep to dream
To feast

The seconds tick on the alarm clock
That is useless as hell
It hasn't woken me, woken me
For months now
I sleep too deeply, sleep to sweetly
When I can sleep at all
When I finally dream
In the street lamp dawn

Those gorram street lamps
And their higher cloud accomplises
Reflected lamplight
In the mirror, in my room, on my skin
And I can't sleep through it
I just can't sleep
No I can't sleep through it
No I just can't sleep
At night

Bum-bum, ba-dada-bum
Rra-rum, ra-dada-dum
Ra-dada, rra-ma-da
Rra-ma-da, rada-dum
Bum-bum, ra-dada-dada-dum
Rra-tatum, ska-rada-dum
Ska-rada
Ska-rada
Ska-rada
Ratata-ratata-rum

I wanna sleep
I need to sleep
I need to wake up in the morning
I wanna sleep
Why can't I sleep

Can you tell me please

Why can't I sleep
Why can't I sleep
Why can't I sleep
At night
