You never fail
To point out every single flaw
Never forget to remind me
Of everything I do wrong
I was stupid getting 60's,
Still stupid on honor roll
And you never cared about my ADHD
Always comparing me to someone else
I already know how worthless I am
I tell myself all the time
No, this isn't teenage angst
I've been sad for years
You've made me feel alone
And that's why I love him,
He told me the things you should have said
All along
I think this revelation is far overdue
The fault isn't in me,
The fault is in you

Knocking the security door with a powerful blow of love,
The door is secured with a key and a pass word,
Daddy holds the key and the mummy keeps the secret code,
You are waiting just outside my heart, raising the bonfire,
For me to steal the key and retrieve the password,
To let you in, so you can feel my warmth, my tempting desire,
Leave me alone and my mind’s signals are haywire,
save me from this temptation caused by this persisting thief.

I can't sleep most of the time
Try to cancel you from my mind
Never liked you that much anyway
Got to try sleep through to Saturday

Can't seem to keep my eyes shut
Can't stop to think about what what what
You said, you said to me when
I lost, I lost you again

Can't make the beat go away
Gotta get me outta this state
I gotta feel the rush on my face

I'm lonely, gotta look for a party
and dance with somebody tonight
Cause I'm lonely, feeling empty inside
Can't you make me feel alive

I-N-S-O-M-N-I-A Can't sleep
I-N-S-O-M-N-I-A Can't sleep

Don't look at me like that
What? You think I'm some kinda maniac
Who was asking for your opinion anyway
It's my life and you don't have a say

Gotta get, get outta this place
Can't stand to look at your face
I'm gonna get lost in the underground
I'll **** you if you follow me around

Can't make the beat go away
Gotta get me outta this day
I gotta feel the rush on my face

I'm lonely, gotta look for a party
and dance with somebody tonight
Cause I'm lonely, feeling empty inside
Can't you make me feel alive
I-N-S-O-M-N-I-A
I can't sleep

Let me go.
You gave me the wings to fly so
let me go
explore the world around me
and find something that truly astounds me.
Let me go.
You are no longer in charge of my future.
Let me go.
I will find a place
not in your hovering embrace.
Let me go.
Let me go.
*Let me go.

The pendulum swings
echoing inside the clock.
The muffled sound repeats,
tick, tock, tick, tock.

The noise echos hollowly
as if it is too empty to speak.
The rhythm is so off beat,
tick... tock... tick....... creek.

The clock's hands are failing
to point to the numbers on time.
The sound is now unnatural,
tick.. tock... tick...... chime.

The pendulum swings
slowly it falls apart like a thread.
The sound starts to echo,
tick..... tock.. tick....... dead.

I am kicked around
dragged on the ground
folded into a crinkly mound,
yet I have the warmest embrace
that's the most profound.
