I'm A Sucker For A Kind Word

I'd be hanging on their words like they almost meant a thing.
And the only lullaby I heard the sirens blaring are singing me to sleep.
Holding my loved one tight.
On the softness of her laugh I could almost make my bed.
But the racket of her absence join the sirens blaring ringing in my head.
Holding nothing tight, holding nothing tight with my eyes so wide.

In a house without a backdoor I was looking for a fire escape.
And I've been rippin up the floorboards,
Just trying to get away from this sleeplessness.

She'd be hanging on my words like I almost meant a thing.
And I'd give anything not to let her down but finally sleep through just one more tonight.
Holding her so tight, holding her so tight but my eyes are wide.

In a house without a backdoor I was looking for a fire escape.
And I've been rippin up the floorboards,
Just trying to get away from this sleeplessness.

Beause my mind just can't stop moving I think I know why.
Oh, I know why.
It's sad but I'm a sucker for a kind word.
And I'll just hurt until I find one.
I'll just hurt until I find one.
And I've been trying all the windows.
And I've been running up the staircase.
In a house without a backdoor.

Sleeplessness, sleeplessness, sleeplessness
In a house without a backdoor I was looking for a fire escape.
And I've been rippin up the floorboards,
Just trying to get away.
