Sleep Lyrics by Selfish Sons

Secondhand Emotions

2020

[Verse 1]
Mediocre dreams, are few and far between again
Hoping if I think it or write, it will start to mend
The red lips and dancing hips made for silver screens are keeping me again, they’re keeping me
Days aren’t the same now, I’m wasting away to a memory, a memory

[Chorus]
I don’t want this night to end inside of my head
So take me over
'Cause I don’t want to face it all again

No, no, no

[Verse 2]
Mediocre dreams, don’t treat me the same as they used to
I’ll hold on and hope that this place just might take me there
It's all the same
We need to leave before I let this get away
Show me

[Chorus]
I don’t want this night to end inside of my head
So take me over
'Cause I don’t want to face it all again

[Bridge]
Why am I not sleeping?
Why am I not sleeping?
Why am I not sleeping?
Why am I not sleeping?
Show me


[Chorus]
I don’t want this night to end inside of my head
So take me over
'Cause I don’t want to face it all again
I don’t want this night to end inside of my head
So take me over
'Cause I don’t want to face it all again
