Narcolepsy

I'm on a train, but there's no one at the helm

And there's a demon in my brain, who starts to overwhelm

And there it goes, my last chance for peace

You lay me down, but I get no release



And I say

I try to keep awake

I try to swim beneath

I try to keep awake

But I, I can feel this narcolepsy slide

Into another nightmare



And there's a demon in my head who starts to play

A nightmare tape loop of what went wrong yesterday

And I hold my breath till it's more than I can take

And I close my eyes and dream that I'm awake



I try to keep awake

I try to keep awake

I try to keep awake but I

I can feel this narcolepsy slide

Into another nightmare



I read dead Russian authors

Volumes at a time

I write everything down except what's on my mind

Cause my greatest fear is that sucking sound

And then I know that I will never get back out

And there's a bone in my hand that connects to a drink

In a crowded room where the glasses clink

And I'll buy you a beer and we'll drink it deep

Because that keeps me from falling asleep



How'd you like to be alone and drowning

How'd you like to be alone and drowning

How'd you like to be alone and drowning

Still I find this narcolepsy slide slide

Into another nightmare



Keep awake

Keep awake

Keep awake

Still I find this narcolepsy slides..
