Insomnia

There's a light bulb dangling from string
 It's slowly swaying up over my head now
 As I jot down the words that'll never be sung
 And wait for my headache to numb
 And the wind sounds as if the world's sighing
 And the moon's just a torn fingernail
 As the TV flickers and hums by the wall
 And I wait for my eyesight to fade
 So, So, So
 It's so damn slow
 So, So, So
 It's so damn slow
 And the bright-eyed choke on ambition
 And the old folks circle their graves
 And the young ones are busy destroying their names
 And you're still just wasting away.
 I sit and watch the screen for a message
 Some kinda sign that says we're OK
 But the screen stays blank till I turn the thing off
 And wait for my conscience to break.
 ♪
 So, So, So
 It's so damn slow
 So, So, So
 It's so damn slow
 I hope you're learning to listen
 And I hope you're learning to stay
 And I hope you find what you're missing
 And I hope that you're making you're way
 I'm a headcase if I don't keep moving
 And my head hurts if I don't sit still
 It's an itch that I'll never stop scratching
 It's a hole that I'll never quite fill
 So
