A rescue party was sent But when it started in I pushed away the hands And then turned over Had you known that I would break free Would you still be sober It came to rest just when I'd harnessed all the din An emptiness within Produced once louder Oh do you know the tune Of my insomnia Who's sung to sleep each night A lesser man of wakened fright Can you see the glass within my eyes Can you see that I'm oh so tired I can't see the difference in my life The dreams have all expired Staid and walleyed Made to wallow in It ends your urge to be purged By the finger that once pointed at you Staid and walleyed Made to wallow in It ends your hope to be choked By the nausea that creeps up in your throat
