tired & sleepless

the everything is different and everything is new month lies behind

and my beloved one here around me have already been sleeping for a while

so i was not but instead of this i overstretched the passing day

and the missing 25th 60 minutes magazine waves another 1000 miles away

 

tired and sleepless on the spot

take hostage in the global neighbourhood

tired and sleepless hand in hand

make the eyelids burning like salt and sand

ears only hear the remaining sound

of heartbeat and breath reflecting from the ground


so i take another hour on a credit base but it´s a stolen slot

i feel severe and sleepy but i cannot doze away from this scaring plot

neither getting the rhythm nor matching the pace

of the given intervals between nights and days

stricken in by the state i falsely invaded

wish myself back to when the blue hour faded away

tired and sleepless on the spot

take hostage in the global neighbourhood

tired and sleepless hand in hand

make the eyelids burning like salt and sand

ears only hear the remaining sound

of heartbeat and breath reflecting from the ground
