[Intro] (No sleep) (No sleep) [Verse 1] Two thirty Clock ticking Room quiet Tap leaking Mind hyper Dark cipher Pied Piper A viper [Pre-Chorus] Things I said years ago Things I should've long let go Every wrong turn, every doubt Funny how now they all come out [Chorus] No sleep My thoughts won't leave me alone No sleep My mind uproots every stone No sleep My dreams won't give me much rest No sleep It's always me, not at my best No sleep [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Loops of dead feelings Come like tooth drillings Paint chipping On memory's clippings Gone faces Abandoned places Dumb conversations Failed expectations [Pre-Chorus] Things half done and thoughts half-spoken Every door that looked half-open Every choice I now regret Funny how detailed it all gets [Chorus] No sleep My thoughts won't leave me alone No sleep My mind uproots every stone No sleep My dreams won't give me much rest No sleep It's always me, not at my best No sleep [Breakdown] Morning comes I'll wonder why These thoughts Kept me up all night By daylight I'll let go But right now My mind says no [Final Chorus] No sleep My thoughts won't leave me alone No sleep My mind uproots every stone No sleep My dreams won't give me much rest No sleep It's always me, not at my best No sleep [Outro] No sleep No sleep Now three thirty No sleep
