lyrics

Snow falls down
And everything is dying all around
Night falls earlier every day

Darkness calls every night
Keeps me awake until daylight
Voices in my head won't let me be

It doesn't matter how hard I try
I guess I'll just sleep when I die
The peacefulness I crave will arrive
And then I'll kiss my sleepless nights goodbye

I saw a man
Whose smile made me think he'd understand
I told him all of my fears

It felt so right
A warm place to lay my head at night
But like the others, soon he would disappear

It doesn't matter how hard I try
I guess I'll just sleep when I die

It doesn't matter how hard I try
I guess I'll just sleep when I die
The peacefulness I've feigned will arrive
And then I'll kiss my sleepless nights goodbye

Sleepless nights goodbye
Sleepless nights
