Shorter words
Shorter calls
She says my feelings last too long
Deeper hurts
Deeper falls
I just don't feel good at all
But she knows that I love her
I know that she cares
She asks me how I'm doing
Though I know that she is scared
She says she has no time for me
So I tell her I'm doin fine
I'm only sleeping
Doubt and anger in my mind
Wondering why
Shouting in stranger times
I hear mom and dad cry
But they know I still believe
They ask me how I'm doing
Because their family
And even when they cross state lines
I'll tell them I'm doing fine
I'm only sleeping
You know I don't want to fight
But you can't drive
Twenty-Seven been a sight
Now I finally see the light
Brother won't you tell me what's wrong
No I just want to be alone
But he knows that I love him
I know that he cares
He asks "Going to god knows where?"
If I fall asleep while I drive
He wants to give me advice
But I tell him I'm doin fine
I'm only sleeping
I'm only sleeping
