God I found hell in a college town At least it felt like hell to me So when I die at least I know I'll be Somewhere sleepless in the university "Sleepless in Cincinnati" Is what they'd call me But no one's calling to bail me out It's clear that you don't want me around But at least I'll know that I won't be alone (I won't be alone) Yeah, at last I'll know I've finally found A home and a place to be So I'll walk straight, keep my head up Fake a smile, talk to myself Never wake up from this nightmare That most would call a dream I'll do my time, what's expected Make sure I'm not a disappointment I'll play into this scheme If it makes you happy But you'd collapse if you knew What I'm doing and where I've been In the kingdom of all man's "sin" Well hell, I found "god" fleeing the scene I think he doesn't want to be The one to bear the bad news to me So I'll just resume my daily routine Yeah, that's what I'll do Yeah, that's where I'll be Permanently
