Megadeth Lyrics

"Insomnia" lyrics


(Music, lyrics: Mustaine)

I'm running in quicksand
Something's haunting me
The guilty past I've buried
My mind won't let me sleep

I'll do anything for peace
(I keep waking up)
A solemn oath I make
Cross my heart please let me sleep
(I keep waking up)
How much more do I take

My head is talking to me
I don't know what it needs
But the loudest voice
Is the one I heed

Insomnia, my swollen bloodshot eyes
Insomnia, awake till morning light
Insomnia, stirring deep inside
Insomnia, somebody turn out the lights

I can't sleep - Insomnia
I'm twisting and turning
(I keep waking up)

The madness I must tame
My candle is burning
(I keep waking up)
Both ends again today
The whole house is creaking

I know they're out there
The things kept from sight
I beg to the shadows
I can't sleep

Insomnia, footsteps on the walk
Insomnia, I hear someone knock
Insomnia, I wish it was a dream
Insomnia, can you hear me scream
