Don't Want to Sleep Tonight Lyrics
I don't want to sleep tonight
I'm going to stay up until tomorrow
I've made it through another day
I've gone and thrown another day away
Everything I do is redundant
Everything I say is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I've been left behind
I cant help coming to in songs
I get so far then cant carry on
A strummed guitar's a companion
A blackboard bleeding chalk sums of all my wrongs
Everything I do is redundant
Everything I sing is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I've been left behind
Underlying text and emotions
Have been replaced by production
I'd rather have it rhyme and tell a lie
Honest thought and expression
Second place to promotion
I'd rather have the money than spend the time
I don't want to sleep tonight.
I'm going to stay up until tomorrow
I've made it through another day
I've gone and thrown another day away
Everything I say is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I've been left behind
I get so far then cant carry on
A strummed guitar's a companion
A blackboard bleeding chalk sums of all my wrongs
Everything I sing is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I've been left behind
Have been replaced by production
I'd rather have it rhyme and tell a lie
Honest thought and expression
Second place to promotion
I'd rather have the money than spend the time
