lyrics

Dawn, going to bed.
Sit on my hands before long just can't stand in the end.
Black into red.
Run if I been there to long just can't handle what's gone,
dead noise in a song.
Walk back again see more out than the in all along.

But sleepin' ain't easy when you don't belong...

In the dawn, going to bed.
Paper burns words turns to heat for my feet in the morning.
Silence is said
to be all them leaves on the trees when the wind it is dead,
dead noise in a song.
Walk back again, see more out that the in all along.

But sleepin' ain't easy if you don't belong in your bed.
You work through the night and the morning is cold, cold cold again.
And you walk through the day for the words that will pay and them eyes try to stay so,
so damn wide open.

There in the night,
sound in the walls and the stairs there to fall or decide.
Up on it now,
grip on that banister how can you ever get down?
Down no then it's gone,
walk back again see more out than the in all along.

Chorus/repeat/End
