lyrics

INSOMNIA
(Chris Hludzik)

It’s tough to fall asleep
When you’ve got these dreams that you can’t keep
And nightmares that just won’t let you be

Knowing you’re only hours away
From the pain and frustration of another day
You wonder, “will I ever be free – to be me?”

My head feels heavy, as I turn out the light
But no matter what I do
It’s so hard to say goodnight…

CHORUS:
Insomnia (There ain’t no cure for) (x2)
Insomnia
The only sure thing
Is that you gotta wake up

That clock is foolin’ me
It can’t be as late as it seems to be
2 a.m.? My mind is on the run

Computer screen that shines so bright
In the middle of my darkest nights
Convincing myself that this is fun

Tossin’ and turnin’
I can’t get a wink
I’m tryin’ hard to nod off
But all I can do is blink…

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
And all my days I will wander
In a dreary, weary, sleepy haze
This caffeinated culture barely keeps me awake
Through the daily grind and the promise of another empty handshake…

CHORUS (x2):

©2007, Chris Hludzik.
