I don't want to fall asleep I don't want to fall asleep I could tell you everything was perfect I could lie and say that it was worth it Everything you show is on the surface I'll write a song and just pretend you've heard it They say that opposites attract you're that good sleep And I'm a restless insomniac But I still dream And I don't want to fall asleep if I can't stay asleep for good And I don't want to hear you speak if you can't say it like you should I don't want to fall asleep I don't want to fall asleep Every note I write you'd just return it Every key I find you'd lose on purpose We used to sing but I can't hear you now You're just a melody I can't get down And I don't want to fall asleep if I can't stay asleep for good And I don't want to hear you speak if you can't say it like you should I don't want to fall asleep I don't want to fall asleep
