To Sleep by KZ Angela Lyrics
[Verse]
Sitting on the stool by my waiting piano
My mind's so full but my body's empty
Scribbling the lyrics of a new song
But I scrap that and eventually it's nothing
Pretending my melodies didn't even come out at all
Chucking them out till the next time I write again
[Pre-Chorus]
And when it turns to night, I'd go to bed
And wait for the dreams to reach my head
But I can't even close my eyes after 4 hours I've tried
Everyone asleep, careful not to wake them, and I, I, I
[Chorus]
Climb out the window onto the rooftops barefoot
Admiring city lights, and it's way way past midnight
Tracing back the footsteps of the felines that happen to lurk around
And there's so much more to be found
I don't want to go back to sleep and dream
I jus want to stay up awake and see
[Verse]
Sitting on the edge of a 12 foot building
Allowing myself to stay in the present
No one to care but no one to harm
And I'm so glad it turned out to be nothing
Pretending my opinions didn't even matter at all
Allowing myself to accept just who I am
[Pre-Chorus]
And when it turns to night, I'd go to bed
And wait for the dreams to reach my head
But I can't even close my eyes after 4 hours I've tried
Everyone asleep, careful not to wake them, and I, I, I
[Chorus]
Run free on top of every building barefoot
Now I have all the rights, and the Sun's about to rise
Tracing back the rock trail from the beacons that take me to my house
Going into peaceful blackout
I don't wanna go back to sleep and dream
I just want to stay up awake and see
Sitting on the stool by my waiting piano
My mind's so full but my body's empty
Scribbling the lyrics of a new song
But I scrap that and eventually it's nothing
Pretending my melodies didn't even come out at all
Chucking them out till the next time I write again
[Pre-Chorus]
And when it turns to night, I'd go to bed
And wait for the dreams to reach my head
But I can't even close my eyes after 4 hours I've tried
Everyone asleep, careful not to wake them, and I, I, I
[Chorus]
Climb out the window onto the rooftops barefoot
Admiring city lights, and it's way way past midnight
Tracing back the footsteps of the felines that happen to lurk around
And there's so much more to be found
I don't want to go back to sleep and dream
I jus want to stay up awake and see
[Verse]
Sitting on the edge of a 12 foot building
Allowing myself to stay in the present
No one to care but no one to harm
And I'm so glad it turned out to be nothing
Pretending my opinions didn't even matter at all
Allowing myself to accept just who I am
[Pre-Chorus]
And when it turns to night, I'd go to bed
And wait for the dreams to reach my head
But I can't even close my eyes after 4 hours I've tried
Everyone asleep, careful not to wake them, and I, I, I
[Chorus]
Run free on top of every building barefoot
Now I have all the rights, and the Sun's about to rise
Tracing back the rock trail from the beacons that take me to my house
Going into peaceful blackout
I don't wanna go back to sleep and dream
I just want to stay up awake and see
