I cannot recall the day I woke up
My dreams becoming bleaker– Sunbleached
Shook up, rinsed, repeat

I can’t seem to grasp
I can’t dig deeper
Waste my time,
I’ll rot in bed
I think I need a cigarette

You just say I need rest
You’ll just say I need rest

Oh I can’t sleep
Feverdreams

Close your hands into a fist
You need this
Your brother is a freakhouse
You know your worse
Your family can’t lift the curse

They will walk with caution through the city,
Stitches, paracetamol,
Alcohol and cleaning tools

You’ll put a few knocks upon the door
When he opens up, he’s shocked to see the kids before him
You say you cannot explain what’s going on
But you’ll need to stay, just not too long
He’ll give us a nod, and turns to wak into the room.
“I’ve got a few sofas and a spare bedroom,”

(Oh I can’t sleep) Nightmares, nightmare
I’ve been having nightmares
I remember you holding a gun and then I witnessed

Lightning, Lightning,
Blood drips on my nightdress
I remember nothing but a scream
I thought I died there, Died there,
(Oh I can’t sleep)

Running up and down the stairs
I think I know, I think I saw exactly what we did there
I got scared so fast
That right now I’m pushing air
Through my lungs– way too fast.
