We Can Only Sleep Lyrics

Sunlight leaks through a open window
And tries to wake me up, tries to hold me down
And 'cause I failed at things too simple
It's had the best of me, it's left me on the ground
And so I'll just stay sleeping until the evening howls

So this storm will break the night,
Wakes me up to raging tides
Crashing down like (?) rocks
The ropes will pull me off
Just like a compass in the snow
It's needle struggles to and fro
As if it's lost, it tries to keep
The courage lost beneath the sea

Woken up to Northern Lights
Hollowed shells and freezing nights
I bite my lip to keep the feeling in my face
This is just a simple fact of how I felt
Just holding flowers in the snow, dying in the cold,
So I'll leave them by your side every night

So this storm will break the night,
Wakes me up to raging tides
Crashing down like (?) rocks
The ropes will lock to pull me off
Just like a compass in the snow
It's needle struggles to and fro
As if it's lost, it tries to keep
The courage lost beneath the sea

And I will walk away, to hide inside a home
Just leaving footprints that follow like the storm
'Cause we have all been lost
'Cause we have all been lost

So this storm will break the night,
Wakes me up to raging tides
Crashing down like (?) rocks
It's ropes will pull me off
Just like a compass in the snow
It's needle struggles to and fro
As if it's lost, it tries to keep
The courage lost beneath the sea

'Cause I am always lost
'Cause I am always lost
