A Long Night

Came in at 2 o' clock, piss drunk again You smelled him coming, hands Running rough, fingernails, dirty with crust You just act asleep but its never enough Whats been, lurking under the surface Making your mind come up with certain Situations, have you waking up and cursing Can't sleep at all, now youre hurting So real it, leaves you struggling With the idea it could be you, then you wake up Crying, tears smear your make up Can't fall back asleep, so you turn the tape up Shook up, scared, get prepared Tomorrows a repeat of the same Dreams coming out in a way, when you wake, you're calling out Talking bout, nightmares, bad dreams all around When the sun comes up You stretch your arms to the air Face goes wide, wide Yawn starts, way down deep then comes outside To the world you never left But to you it was a long night To the world you never left But to you it was a long night Go to work looking like Somebody stabbed you in the eye Squint to light, eyes shut, veins cut into white Telling the truth, when you meant to lie Wanna sleep so much, so, so tired I can't think straight, i'm Gonna take a sick day, go home Cause i'm losing my mind But if you close your eyes He comes right back to your side Your heart beats with a rush, wanna get up You don't like him too much cause he hurts with his touch Used to have such, beautiful dreams What happened, you started snapping Off with your attitude, getting rude It came back on you, now you're waiting till the Sun comes up You stretch your arms to the air Face goes wide, wide Yawn starts, way down deep then comes outside To the world you never left But to you it was a long night To the world you never left But to you it was a long night It was a long night It was a long night Flipping the covers on the floor, sweat Sticking to the small of your back Back slipping off the mattress cause you Can't escape from the man in black, black Block out the thought, but you can't Even when you pop pills, self medicate Even when you wake, its just a short break Til you gotta go back to sleep and get OOOOOOH Straight up scared, get prepared Tomorrows a repeat of the same Dreams coming out in a way, when you wake, you're calling out Stomping down nightmares, bad dreams all around Sun comes up You stretch your arms to the air Face goes wide, wide Yawn starts, way down deep then comes outside To the world you never left But to you it was a long night To the world you never left But to you it was a long night
