Everyone sings like they should be whispering around here None of the messages were ever clear The tones are polite, but always insincere You fell asleep with all the secrets you keep in your head And when you woke up they were all on the bed in the daylight You went out that night and you were never quite the same again When you got home you started drinking alone in your room (every night) All of the people that you left behind said you lost 100% of your mind You said "why don't you write another song about riding the bus? Why don't you take another picture of the train station?" Why don't you f** off? 'cause I can't ever sleep I can't ever sleep I can't ever seem to get to sleep Give me a ride because I'm as f**ed up inside as your car A broken radiator and a broken heart Isn't that where stories like this always start? And sing me a song about the things that go wrong around here And I'll try not to fall asleep In the backseat I can't ever sleep (I can't ever sleep) I can't ever sleep (I can't ever sleep) I can't ever sleep with you again
