Whose thorn will I pull today?
And whose embrace will leave me trembling?
And whose kind words will pierce right through me?
And whose rejection will deem me a failure?
I need a pill to sleep at night
I need a pill to sleep at night
I need a pill to sleep at night
So please don't try and wake me
Please don't try and wake me
Will anything but maybes infect my ears?
I'd k** for you, but you don't care
I'm cold and I'm hollow the barrel of a gun
The sweet sound of forgiveness I forgive no one
I need a pill to sleep at night
I need a pill to sleep at night
I need a pill to sleep at night
So please don't try and wake me
Cuz I'm tired
Oh, I'm tired
Oh, I'm tired
Oh, I'm tired
So please don't try and wake me
So please don't try and wake me
So please don't try and wake me
I'll try to breathe
Breathe in the air of conviction
To start what I finished
To end at the beginning
The tracks of recovery
Have led to discovery
The tracks of recovery
Have led to discovery
And I have found out that I tried
Yes, I have found out that I tried
Yes, I have found out that I tried
And I can die with that
I need a pill to sleep at night
I need a pill to sleep at night
I need a pill to sleep at night
So please don't try and wake me
Cuz I'm tired
Oh, I'm tired
Oh, I'm tired
Oh, I'm tired
So please don't try and wake me
So please don't try and wake me
So please don't try and wake me
