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 reach so 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 streetlight, my sunlight   I won't sleep, I'm up all night      Can't stop till I have been 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      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
