Can't Sleep

Lyrics

You've been out there in the city
 What did you bring back for me?
 A vicious preoccupation
 With a darkness underneath
 And there's something empty now
 In the way that you laugh
 Is there something you're hiding?
 Oh darling, I'm afraid to ask
 Are you waking 'cause you're worried in the dead of the night
 ♪
 Why are you staring at the ceiling 'til the morning light?
 ♪
 Is your heart pounding with a secret that you can't keep?
 Tell me why you can't sleep
 ♪
 I've been sitting here waiting
 Stare out the window on the street
 Watch strangers come around the corner
 Hoping it was you I'd see
 I pretend not to notice
 The distance in your eyes
 But when you pull me in closer
 Smell cigarette smoke and lies
 Are you waking 'cause you're worried in the dead of the night
 ♪
 Why are you staring at the ceiling 'til the morning light?
 ♪
 Is your heart pounding with a secret that you can't keep?
 Tell me why you can't sleep
 You're not the only one who ever needed
 Speak, scream it aloud and shout down your demons
 Lies make you weak and that's why you can't sleep
 ♪
 Are you waking 'cause you're worried in the dead of the night
 ♪
 Why are you staring at the ceiling 'til the morning light?
 ♪
 Is your heart pounding with a secret that you can't keep?
 Tell me why you can't sleep
 Tell me why you can't sleep
 Tell me why you can't sleep
 Tell me why you can't sleep
