lyrics

Sleep will not win
Not until each regret is counted
All the hours fade away
As I branch out this shady character I've made

I know that its a curse
Obsessive and rehearsed
An open wound I scratch instead of nurse

Sleep will not win
Not until the last leaf has fallen
I try to grow the things I need
This garden is moribund, struggling to breathe

The Seeds I sowed yesterday is tomorrows decay
watered with shame but absent of blame
Every single line is a push against a door
I'd much rather pull closer, embrace until its over
Every turn of phrase is born from an inwardly beggar who knows
What he wants not he needs

I can't control myself
Temptation overwhelms
A long line of addicts
This is no different

I know it's a curse.
