Sick Day - Sleeping in the Dark Lyrics

I don't need you to sing me a lullabye tonight
I just want you to bring me a piece of the moonlight

Because I'm tired of sleeping in the dark
I'm tired of sleeping in an empty bed with an empty heart

I don't need you to pour any liquor in my drink
My spirits wouldn't soar
My heart would just sink into the ground
Whiskey-soaked and lonely
Without a sound
Descending deeper down
Slumping to a slow beat

But I know I must be dreaming
As I lie here awake
The light I've been looking for went out years ago
And my heart can't unbreak

I don't need you to tell me that things will work out right
I want to feel your heartbeat when I wake up at midnight

Because I'm tired of sleeping in the dark
I'm tired of sleeping in an empty bed with an empty heart

I don't need you to read me another goodnight moon
I can't even see you in this pitch black room

And I'm so tired of sleeping in the dark
I'm tired of sleeping in an empty bed with an empty heart

But I know I must be dreaming
As I lie here awake
The light I've been looking for went out years ago
And my heart can't unbreak

I don't need you to make me valerian tea
I just want you to light me a lamp so I can see

Because I'm tired of sleeping in the dark
I'm tired of sleeping in an empty bed with an empty heart
