Counting Sheep

If it's all the same to you

I've decided that I'm lacking proof

A basic thread of unbelief

Could unravel your attempt at truth

You could blame it on her

You could pin it on him that'd be a lie

Cause there's no subtle dispute or selfless pursuit

Those things are marked by what they hide

No surprise that you've found yourself in too deep

Blame your chequered past for your lack of sleep

But make sure you count your blessings while you're counting

While you're counting sheep

If nothing more remains for you

It's decided that you leave confused

A simple case of hit and miss

You offered something more than you can give

Oh, you could blame it on her

You could pin it on him but you don't want a fight

'Cause there's no subtle dispute or selfless pursuit

Those things are marked by what they hide

No surprise that you've found yourself in too deep

Blame your chequered past for your lack of sleep

But make sure you count your blessings while you're counting

While you're counting sheep

Asleep in your uncertain future, no one else can tell you

What you came here for or read your thoughts

If confidence is open-ended there's no guarantee

You'll be protected now and here's no safety house

You can't just stay and rest here in my regard for you

It's no surprise that you've found yourself in too deep

Blame your chequered past for your lack of sleep

Make sure you count your blessings while you're counting

While you're counting sheep
