You're a quiet thought in the middle of the night, when I'm so tired I can't sleep My saving grace when I can't catch my breath, or take that next step I'm doing this for you, even though I'll never have you, my love Trying to tell myself I'm used to being alone, the old lie Telling it to myself for so long I almost believe it But I can't fool these sleepless nights, methodically destroying my illusion These sleepless nights which run me into the ground And when I finally fall asleep, I dream of nothing
