The Lover After Me
(Faithless Remix)
Here I go again, I promised myself
I would get to sleep today
It's been eighteen hours and counting
I'm in bed, I still feel exactly the same
It's just that everyone I know
Seems to find it so easy
Just go to bed and then they fall asleep
If only I could just do that
I'm under the covers
But I'm wide awake
And all the lights are gone
Everyone is asleep
The only problem is
I am still wide awake
Where's the sand?
Where's the sandman now?
Where's the sand...?
He must be running late
Here I go again, I promised myself
I would win this thing today
I'm staring at the ceiling
Counting all the cracks
And I feel so alone
It's just that everyone I know
Is now deep into their sleep
And dreaming dreams I can't interrupt
Even when I have those dreams
I wake up, I'm lost again
And I can't move on
And now the lights are on
People start to awake
I've gone another night
Only feeling that state
The sun's up
And I've had no sleep
The sun's up
But all I feel is grey
