I could use a good dream tonight Or even just some sleep But I'm held by a conscious mind And the fear of what darkness brings The sun lights my past like summer While the night hides the road ahead And my eyes don't know which to choose So they'll stay turned back in my head We hid in your car for days Told you I wanted for nothing Then my wants all turned to needs And my needs all turned away I play these keys for hours With my dog sitting at my feet She's not here 'cause she likes the sound She just wants me to pick her up Just give me a time and a place And surely I won't make it But to tell me to stay away And surely I'll be there No such thing as a winnable fight And if someone had told me earlier Then maybe I wouldn't be here Maybe I wouldn't be so tired
