Happiness can look but it'll never find me
Sadness is my home
A punching fist always seems to hit me
And bruises my bones

How can I sleep
When I don't have peace?
I've got a war in my head
And I'm losing
How can I sleep
Without a victory?
Fighting soldiers are found dead
I'm losing

Happiness can look but it'll never find me
Sadness hides me away
And my demons always seem to get me
They darken my day

How can I sleep
When I don't have peace?
I've got a war in my head
And I'm losing
How can I sleep
Without a victory?
Fighting soldiers are found dead
I'm losing
