- Don't Want To Sleep Tonight LyricsI don’t want to sleep tonight
I’m going to stay up until tomorrow
I’ve made it through another day
I’ve gone and thrown another day away
Everything I do is redundant
Everything I say is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I’ve been left behind
I cant help coming to in songs
I get so far then cant carry on
A strummed guitar’s a companion
A blackboard bleeding chalk sums of all my wrongs
Everything I do is redundant
Everything I sing is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I’ve been left behind
Underlying text and emotions
Have been replaced by production
I’d rather have it rhyme and tell a lie
Honest thought and expression
Second place to promotion
I’d rather have the money than spend the time
I don't want to sleep tonight.
I’m going to stay up until tomorrow
I’ve made it through another day
I’ve gone and thrown another day away
Everything I do is redundant
Everything I say is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I’ve been left behind
I cant help coming to in songs
I get so far then cant carry on
A strummed guitar’s a companion
A blackboard bleeding chalk sums of all my wrongs
Everything I sing is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I’ve been left behind
Underlying text and emotions
Have been replaced by production
I’d rather have it rhyme and tell a lie
Honest thought and expression
Second place to promotion
I’d rather have the money than spend the time
I don't want to sleep tonight.
