Sleepless Nights Songtext
von Memphis May Fire

I stare deep down into the eyes of my nightmares
As they come to life (As they come to life)
I feel my heart beat right out of my chest
And I think I might be losing the fight (I might be losing it)
I live inside my poisoned mind
It leaves me paralyzed (It leaves me paralyzed)
My vision′s blurred, my words are slurred
I think I might die tonight

This shadow follows me
It always keeps me on the edge
I know that I would never jump
So why can't I step back from the ledge? Am I losing control?

You take me to the darkest places I have ever been
I think I feel it coming back again

Why am I terrified of everything I used to love?
Save me from myself, I don′t wanna hate who I've become


Inhale, exhale
Why is it so hard to breathe?
Inhale, exhale
Why isn't this working?

If I live to see the other side of this
I swear I′ll never take for granted any happiness
I never knew what I had until it was gone
How long will this go on?

Why am I terrified of everything I used to love?
Save me from myself, I don′t wanna hate who I've become
Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I′ll be fine
I just wanna be myself again, I wanna know that I'm alive

Tell me is there something that I′m learning from this?
I try my best to make the most of it
Maybe I just need to see the bigger picture
Show me how it ends

If I have to feel this forever
I'd rather feel nothing at all


Bring me back to life
I just can′t take another sleepless night
Bring me back to life
Give me the clarity to see the light
I know that you can take this away
So I'm praying that today is the day
Oh, I pray that today is the day
Bring me back to life

Why am I terrified of everything I used to love?
Save me from myself, I don't wanna hate who I′ve become
Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I′ll be fine
I just wanna be myself again, I wanna know that I'm alive

Please, give me peace, give me joy, give me sanity
Give me hope, give me love, give me truth
