Fear of Falling Asleep

[It's not bad that you can't fall asleep
It's not bad that you're scared of the dark
It's just something you're born with I guess]
This hold on me, I'm terrified
Feel so alone, the dark won't swallow me yet
As it spreads like a parasite
And as I lay here in my bed at night
The only thing that's truly mine is my fear,
Of falling asleep and not waking up
Oh feel the sunshine on your face
'Cos it will come to end
Like a river dries without the rain
Will you witness me in a pit of fire
Or a blazing light atop a golden spire
Oh everything comes to an end but I can live with that
But I can live with that
I bury my head in the sand and go on acting like it's all gone to plan
And I feel the sweat dripping down my neck
Pretend it hasn't happened then it hasn't happened yet
And as I lay here in my bed at night
The only thing that's truly mine is my fear,
Of falling asleep and not waking up
Oh feel the sunshine on your face
'Cos it will come to end
Like a river dries without the rain
Will you witness me in a pit of fire
Or a blazing light atop a golden spire
Oh everything comes to an end but I can live with that
Oh feel the sunshine on your face
'Cos it will come to end
Like a river dries without the rain
Will you witness me in a pit of fire
Or a blazing light atop a golden spire
Oh everything comes to an end but I can live with that
But I can live with that
But I can live with that
But I can live with that
But I can live with that
But I can live with that
