Transient Insomnia

Post by Josiah »

(verse)
Another minute passes in my fourty hour day
Wasted in this bed of mine just sulking in dismay
I thought that I had kicked this by now
I was surely wrong
And tonight I lie awake 'cause sleep is for the strong

(chorus)
Whatever happened to forever and ever?
I guess it never meant a thing
What ever happened to our dreams of the future?
It's been one long day since you left
And as I toss and turn
I relive the scars you burned on me
And your lies of great affection

(verse)
Your voice is ringing in my ear drums
I'll drown it out eventually
Your likeness rests upon my mind's eye
And now your face is all I see
Your reperations they mean fuck all
Could you really never see?
I'd cast my world down in a second
If you only asked of me

(Chorus)
Whatever happened to forever and ever?
I guess it never meant a thing
What ever happened to our dreams of the future?
It's been one long day since you left
And as I toss and turn
I relive the scars you burned on me
And your lies of great affection

(verse)
And if I could, I'd take it back
The midnight slips have now turned black
All the joy had turned to hope
And what I hoped into regret
And as I look into your eyes
One of love and one despise
Unstick the pages in my heart
Time to make a brand new start
