Another sleepless night fades away
Let the chemicals rise to cease the day.
Try to survive, try to forget
Wake up tonight just to fall asleep.
Wake up just to fall asleep
Wake up just to fall asleep
I awake as my fear hones the burning of my bones.
I feel the walls they're closing in, almost under my skin: oh, how they're closing in.
I hear the silence speak in tongues, afraid of what may come.
The deathwatches in the wall: let's me know the countdown has begun!
Why would you call me insane? I am not the one to blame.
(As I lie awake each night to the sound of my own thoughts)
Why would you call me insane? I am not the one to blame.
(I sometimes wish for hangmen to come collect my lot)
Here, alone, in this wretched place I lie. Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.
Cold is this tomb and darkness cloud my eyes: I cry, I cry out, I cry out desperately.
I cry, I cry out, I cry out desperately.
The silence remain unbroken, the stillness gives no token.
Woke up tonight from a sleepless dream, can't seem to part from my memories.
Don't know the reason why I should stay, must find the will to go away!
The will to go away
The will to go away
Nervous, so dreadfully nervous
I can hear them call.
I'm nervous, so dreadfully nervous.
It's time to end it all.
I'm nervous, so dreadfully nervous.
I embrace the fall.
I'm nervous, so dreadfully nervous!
Why did you call me insane? I was not the one to blame.
(No need to lie awake each night to the sound of my own thoughts)
Why did you call me insane? I was not the one to blame.
(I'm glad I wished for hangmen to come collect my lot)
No longer bothered by the world, to greener pastures I have turned.
You might be sad to hear that I took the final escape, but how I have yearned
To rid myself from what I became. I'm glad to say: I feel no shame.
So, condemn me all you want. That was my life, this is my death
