lyrics
Awake and wired, but exhausted
In through the frosted windows gleam
Either streetlamps or starlight—
Whichever, it seems
Quite lovely to me
But I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid, ‘cause…
…Last night I had another bad dream:
Went tumbling down another rabbit hole
With no one to talk to
And not a single soul
Whose hand I could hold
So, I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
Of all the little cruelties in the world
The perils that have swirled inside my head:
The thought that I’ll drive you
Away, somehow
Is the one I most dread
And I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep…
In through the frosted windows gleam
Either streetlamps or starlight—
Whichever, it seems
Quite lovely to me
But I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid, ‘cause…
…Last night I had another bad dream:
Went tumbling down another rabbit hole
With no one to talk to
And not a single soul
Whose hand I could hold
So, I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
Of all the little cruelties in the world
The perils that have swirled inside my head:
The thought that I’ll drive you
Away, somehow
Is the one I most dread
And I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep
I’m too afraid to sleep…
