Sleepless Lyrics by Sleye

Shadowwork

2020

[Verse 1]
It wasn't how I had pictured
The way that it went was
Just a little bit more different than what I had in mind
I think I'll swallow my pride
And take one for all of us this time
Remember when we were kids &
Thought we were invincible
Now all the bodies start to drop like flies
No, I don't like to remind myself
That I knew what loss felt like

[Hook]
So maybe we'll hold on to this for just tonight
And if you let go, baby we're all gonna die
Reverberating color invade this sky
And maybe we could have it for more than just one life
Is it what you had in mind?

[Post-Chorus]
And this world, it's so wrong
And no one should deserve
This curse, there's no cure
And it hurts, what I've learned

[Verse 2]
I'm sleepless, I can't find the reason
I'm not healing, wounds have gotten deeper
I'll keep this solemnly between us
Our secret, we had an agreement
I don't wanna leave
I'll do what I can to cheat it
I wear a smile knowing you won't believe it
I thought that maybe you were just what I needed
But I know you're reciprocating none of my feelings

[Hook]
Hold on to this for just tonight
And if you let go, baby we're all gonna die
Reverberating color invade this sky
And maybe we could have it for more than just one life
Is it what you had in mind?

[Post-Chorus]
And this world, it's so wrong
And no one should deserve
This curse, there's no cure
And it hurts, what I've learned
