I pull my eyes like slot machines I do, but I never fall asleep These sheep I count don't show up anymore, oh And a stray cat cries and wakes the stars Their constellations spray the dark I toss and turn my demons till they are 'Cause I'm restless for the future And I'm battered by the past I'm paralyzed, nocturnal, never crash 'Cause I'm laying in my room Wishing night birds would come through And my wings are in my chest Packs of lonely cigarettes Keep waiting for the night To light up my soul I'm laying in my bed till blood runs cold But these night birds move too slow The clock is wrong, I still believe Someday, they'll find my batteries I think I lost them somewhere deep in Hell, yeah Some say Neil Armstrong choked the Moon 'Cause it never shines a perfect hue I wonder if it's fading like myself, yeah 'Cause I'm hoping for a new day But I'm shattered like a glass I'm paralyzed, nocturnal, never crash 'Cause I'm laying in my room Wishing night birds would come through And my wings are in my chest Packs of lonely cigarettes Keep waiting for the night To light up my soul I'm laying in my bed till blood runs cold But these night birds move too slow 'Cause I'm laying in my room Wishing night birds would come through And my wings are in my chest Packs of lonely cigarettes Keep waiting for the night To light up my soul I'm laying in my bed till blood runs cold But these night birds move too slow
