how to sleep

(album: no future - 2020)

I don't think I know
That I felt like I know what I was doing
But I don't really remember feeling very scared about it

The water was cool, and you're shining
The windows were burning patterns in my mind
Running away was so tiring
Holding your stare, I felt miles behind

And how do you love when you're frightened?
The thought of me fucking up all these threads
Situations I know are just passing
I'm holding on for you, and static feel

The light ran down the wall
Holding back the stars
Dividing us in new ways
Away from sleep
Confusion has its cost
Wave pools in the dark
Crashing 'round my head

I don't think there was like, a happiest time
I feel like there are happy moments

The water was cool, and you're shining
The windows were burning patterns in my mind
Running away was so tiring
Holding your stare, I slipped miles behind

And how do you love when you're frightened?
The thought of me fucking up all these threads
Situations I know are just passing
I'm holding on for you, and how to sleep

The light ran down the wall
Holding back the stars
Dividing us in new ways
Away from sleep
Confusion has its cost
Wave pools in the dark
Crashing 'round my head
