0 Sleeping (Lyrics)

by Sole   May 2, 2006


Sleeping in the street once more
I'm always give and never take
I don't know what I'm crying for
I gambled on too high a stake
Knocking on each friendly door
No-one answers to a fake
Can't say I ain't been here before
I just can't seem to wake

Because I'm sleeping off the drug
Strayed too far from the track
I acted like a thug (again)
Now I'm never coming back

Waiting here for you again
Can't control my intake
My head aches, my clothes are stained
Another big mistake
You can't seem to feel my pain
You think that you can make
Me, help me to refrain
You know I'll never wake

Because I'm sleeping off the drug
Strayed too far from the track
Acted like a thug (again)
Now I'm never coming back

Because I'm sleeping off the drug
Sleeping off the lies
I just want a hug
But you don't realise
I'm fighting for my life
Fighting for my soul
You just took a knife
Now I've lost control

Because I'm sleeping off the drug (The pain)
Strayed too far from the track (Once more)
I acted like a thug (again)
Now I'm never coming back (So sure)
I'm never coming back

    I really like this. I really don't have much comment to say about it, and let me explain why. I have a difficult time commenting on/rating songs, mostly because in order to truly appreciate a song usually you need to be able to hear it as well as/instead of read it. The musical accompaniment is usually necessary. This is probably the first song-poem on here that I didn't feel like I needed that for. It was good on it's own right. Fantastic job :)

    This was pretty good! Very emotional and honest. Good work. However some of the rhymes were a little choppy and predictable. But it was still very good.

    "Random," sums up this song, and that's what makes a song great! I love it!!!
