Lullaby

i can feel your heartbeat
so heavy in your chest
i wanna let it out just like a bird
free it from your rib cage
shivering little animal
i wanna build a fire for you
don't fear the big bad wolf
i'm gonna scare it away for you
sleep now, let the night creep into your window
sleep now, let the light seep into your dreams

Insomnia Pt. 1
06:16

when the night comes in
and everyone's asleep
i wake and watch the moon
ghosts are crying in my tired head
they hide under my bed
and they come out at sunset
and they say go, go away with us
to a place where your thoughts can calm down
and where you'll sleep forever
but i don't want to sleep forever
just one night, one night
when did the moon become my only friend
and i don't remember since when i've been awake
but if i'm awake then why do i feel so dead
i cannot hear my heartbeat
cannot control the thoughts in my head
all this tiredness leaves a hole in my mind
it's like weaving darkness with your eyes
it's like breathing black light
it's like watching a songbird die
oh, break down the walls i built around myself since
the day i became a ghost
the day i became a ghost
the day i became a ...

Stars
03:19

i'm staring into the darkness, unable to sleep
finding comfort in the lit windows across the street
- to know there's another restless mind
i wish you could sleep so tight
the stars above are sending me morse signals i can't decode
still their flickering light is a tiny flicker of hope
that even after we're gone a little light will shine on
i wish you would shine on

What's Left
06:39

there is only one thing that is left of you in my room
it is the scent of your skin on my pillow that has become so familiar
but i dont want it to be there anymore because you're gone
and the last thing i need now is the thought of you on that pillow when i try to sleep
'don't you cry', that's what you said when you left
but darling, those tears were all i had to make my heart a little lighter
i went out to feed the ducks
gave them all the bread i had in my pockets
but they were never satisfied
they were staring greedily with their beaks opened wide
and i thought
why do they always want more than i can give?
why do they always take everything i have?
i tried to give you all that was left
and in the end you were all that i had
why do they always want more than i can give?
why do they always take everything i have?
why do they always want more than i can give?
why do they always take everything i have?

Insomnia Pt. 2
04:10
|

floorboards are creaking under my feet
like a strange bird's cry in the night
and a wind from a far-away land
plays with my curtains and whispers oh so quietly
a lover's sigh
the howling of a dog
the stillness of the night and the creatures in the dark
leave me shivering
'go to sleep now!'
i can't go to sleep
'sleep well, honey!'
but i cannot sleep
'sweet dreams, darling!'
my dreams are never sweet
