NO SLEEP NEVER STOPPED YOU

No sleep never stopped you

From being one of the few

One of two, who gets away with it

Parents never taught you

How to deal when you're down

They're not around, run away with it

I heard she ran away to an island in France

Where the problems disappear in the palms of your hands

And everything that you think of, everyone that you know

Is a past that expired an hour ago

Could you outrun it all if you just turned your back

So scared of the future that you spend your time looking back

Said don't paint me like that, don't paint me like that

I thought you'd understand

A love I held in both hands

We'll always fall apart

Know better than to start

Building up in my head

Things better left unsaid

Subtlety's an art only starts when you stop

Stop talking

No sleep never stopped you

From being one of the few

One of two, who gets away with it

Parents never taught you

How to deal when you're down

They're not around, run away with it

On the top of a very long list

Is your name in lights that I would never miss

I was told that you left about an hour ago

So when you walk back in I really wanna know

What you're thinking about, been a very long time

Are you lying when you say I didn't cross your mind

Not really sure if it's the place or the time

But I'm feeling something I haven't felt

In a long long long time

No sleep never stopped you

From being one of the few

One of two, who gets away with it

Parents never taught you

How to deal when you're down

They're not around, run away with it

Took too long to reach you

Never could defeat you

Always on my mind

It was the best of times

Took too long to reach you

Never could defeat you

Always on my mind

It was the best of times

It was the best of times

It was the best of times
