lyrics

With the curtains closed and the lights turned off.
And the AC up high and my phone turned off.
I’m drinking instant coffee and I’m wearing her sweater.
I’m puking up candy and I don’t feel better.

I’m watching Question Show reruns and I'm in a haze.
I haven’t felt this good in days.
I’m reading Rat Jenkins memoirs and I’m taking a bath.
I haven’t felt this bad in days.

Raise your hand if you feel like the smoke rising from an ashtray.
Raise your hand if you feel like the smoke rising from an ashtray.

I’m slipping away when I know me too well.
There ain’t a cable long enough to pull me outta this hell.
I can’t think. I’ve got no patience. I’m clawing at the walls.
I’ve got just enough battery left to make one phone call.

Raise your hand if you feel like the smoke rising from an ashtray.
Raise your hand if you feel like the smoke rising from an ashtray.

The doctors tell me I should change my diet.
Sleepless.

The men all tell me I should change my clothes
Sleepless

Everyone says they’re worried about me, and maybe they should be.
Sleepless

The horoscope tells me I should change my woes
Sleepless

The girls all tell me I should change my voice
Sleepless

The singers all tell me I should make less noise
Sleepless

Alarm bell rings. Is that happening outside or is it in my head?
Sleepless

The voices in my head all tell me I should -
But actually, I don’t wanna tell you that
Sleepless

Drove ten hours through the night just to get away.
Everybody’s asking me if I’m okay, and I wish they’d all fucking stop (except for one).
I don’t know where I’m supposed to stay
So I choose a new place every night and I’ll live on the freeway

Raise your hand if you feel like the smoke rising from an ashtray.
Raise your hand if you feel like the smoke rising from an ashtray.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Things look different for insomniacs.
It’s a waking death mask that makes me look that.
I think about you, nameless daydream panorama,
The two of us in love and sleepless in Savannah.

Counting flashes on the smoke alarm cause there ain’t no sheep
ONE
No sleep

Staring at the smoke alarm and anxiety creeps
ONE TWO
No sleep

Violent hypnic jerks keep me from falling asleep
ONE TWO THREE
No sleep

Staring at the smoke alarm: Itchy skin. Scratch and bleed.
ONE TWO THREE FOUR
No sleep

Counting flashes on the smoke alarm cause there ain’t no sheep
ONE TWO THREE FOUR FIVE
No sleep
