lyrics

When you run from that tangled web they weave
an aching lung for each breath that you breathe
and your legs are too tired to hold you up
your endurance is expired, its time for sleep

When you lay down that heavy head
do you find yourself in a lonely bed?
we're never quite as tired as we think

when you wake from that nightly rest
do you find yourself out of breath?
do you wonder why you never dream?
