I don't know why I no longer sleep
I chase the day each time I lay my head down
I race the ghost of you
Everytime I close my eyes
Slip into a world where we are fine
I don't know why I no longer sleep
Promises I make keep breaking down
Haunting my waking dreams
Forcing me to see
I long to be on holiday at peace
But this war we're waging
Can't keep raging on and on
The more we're aging
Empty cages rattle on and on
Chasing lies
Wasting our precious time
