Give me a reason not to keep sleeping

When I'm awake I feel like I am dreaming

The world is shrinking, every street's the same thing

I can't reach that far but there are people disappearing


How can I pretend to know my own mind

The more questions I ask the more I find 

I'm lost at home, out of time

The coins I flip land on their side


I'm holding my breath at your end of town

I'm just passing by, not for the first time

If I could rest my head just for a moment

Then I think that I would be fine


Slowly sinking, still thinking

There must be something I am missing

The street light, my sun light

I won't sleep, I'm up all night


Can't stop (can't stop) till I (till I) have been (have been) used up (used up)

If I was not lost for words then I'd have nothing to describe


I'm holding my breath at your end of town

I'm just passing by, not for the first time

If I could rest my head just for a moment

Then I think that I would be fine
