Some Of Us Don’t Ever Sleep

I’m sure, you’ve had a really rough night

I’m sure, it’s been a pretty tough life

For someone who never even had, never even had

To make up their own mind.

 

I’m sure, you’ve had a few struggles,

I’m sure, you’ve had a few stumbles,

But what kind of man, what kind of man,

Can’t see how good he has it til it’s gone

 

Say your prayers before you go to sleep,

That you wake up when the morning comes,

Some of us don’t ever sleep a wink,

Cause we’re too busy searching for the sun

We’re too busy searching for the sun.

 

I’m sure, you’re hands aren’t always clean

I’m sure, you’ve probably skinned your knee

You know the hard times, the hard times

Are tough to roll.

 

But what kind of man, what kind of man,

Can’t see how good he has it til it’s gone

 

Say your prayers before you go to sleep,

That you wake up when the morning comes,

Some of us don’t ever sleep a wink,

Cause we’re too busy searching for the sun

We’re too busy searching for the sun.

Diction

Am I supposed to be impressed

With your ten letter words and fancy dress

Did you really think you could win me over then?

I’m protesting diction cause you’re just a dick

And there’s no better way to say that.

C’mon and call me immature cause I’m just waiting for it

My middle finger’s been saluting you since the day you made it

Everything you swore you would forward,

You dropped cause it wouldn’t forward you.

 

I’m justified, I’m calling you out

But I won’t call you by your old name

You’re barely recog, barely recognizable.

I can replace it with anything,

Cause I can’t tell you apart, I can’t tell you apart

From the gray faceless, nameless static productions

We laughed about, we laughed about,

When you still had a face to call your own.
