Tired eyes
Quiet lips
Seal the night
With bottled bliss
Shaking hands
Tightening throat
Around your heart
You'll build a moat
Shattered image
Dreams in your cup
You don't really care
If you ever wake up
Calm your mind
Envision those hills
Medicate your life
With more of those ****** pills
Never a good night
Don't think of sleeping well
Because you know with every morning
Comes another day of hell
Let it slip through your fingers
Like sand in a sieve
Stop buying into it
Don't ever believe
Let your heart harden
They've had it all wrong
'Cause in the end you know
You only breathe for so long

Tired eyes
Quiet lips
Seal the night
With bottled bliss
Shaking hands
Tightening throat
Around your heart
You'll build a moat
Shattered image
Dreams in your cup
You don't really care
If you ever wake up
Calm your mind
Envision those hills
Medicate your life
With more of those ****** pills
Never a good night
Don't think of sleeping well
Because you know with every morning
Comes another day of hell
Let it slip through your fingers
Like sand in a sieve
Stop buying into it
Don't ever believe
Let your heart harden
They've had it all wrong
'Cause in the end you know
You only breathe for so long
