Can't Sleep - Blacktop Mojo

You've been out there in the city

What did you bring back for me?

A vicious preoccupation

With a darkness underneath

And there's something empty now

In the way that you live

Is there something you're hiding?

Oh darling, I'm afraid to ask

Lie awaken 'cause you're worried in the dead of the night

Why are you staring at the ceiling till the morning light?

Is your heart pounding with a secret that you can't keep?

Tell me why you can't sleep

I've been sitting here waiting

Stare out the window on the street

Watch strangers come round the corner

Hoping it was you I'd see

I pretend not to notice

The distance in your eyes

But when you pull me in closer

Smell cigarette smoke and lies

Lie awaken 'cause you're worried in the dead of the night

Why are you staring at the ceiling till the morning light?

Is your heart pounding with a secret that you can't keep?

Tell me why you can't sleep

You're not the only one who ever needed

Speak, scream it aloud and showdown your demons

Lies make you weak and that's why you can't sleep

Lie awaken 'cause you're worried in the dead of the night

Why are you staring at the ceiling till the morning light?

Is your heart pounding with a secret that you can't keep?

Tell me why you can't sleep

Tell me why you can't sleep

Tell me why you can't sleep

Tell me why you can't sleep
