Sleepless Nights Lyrics
Memphis May Fire Sleepless Nights
I stare deep down into the eyes of my nightmares,
As they come to life (As they come to life).
I feel my heart beat right out of my chest
And I think I might be losing the fight (I might be losing it).
I live inside my poisoned mind,
It leaves me paralyzed (It leaves me paralyzed).
My vision's blurred, my words are slurred,
I think I might die tonight!
This shadow follows me,
It always keeps me on the edge.
I know that I would never jump,
So why can't I step back from the ledge? Am I losing control?
You take me to the darkest places I have ever been,
I think I feel it coming back again!
[Chorus]
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love? [?]
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become.
Inhale, exhale, why is it so hard to breathe? (Breathe)
Inhale, exhale, why isn't this working!
If I live to see the other side of this,
I swear I'll never take for granted any happiness!
I never knew what I had until it was gone,
How long will this go on!
[Chorus]
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love? [?]
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become.
Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I'll be fine [?]
I just want to be myself again, I want to know that I'm alive!
Tell me is there something that I'm learning from this?
I try my best to make the most of it!
Maybe I just need to see the bigger picture,
Show me how it ends!
If I have to feel this forever, I'd rather feel nothing at all.
Bring me back to life,
I just can't take another sleepless night.
Bring me back to life,
Give me the clarity to see the light!
I know that you can take this away (Away),
So I'm praying that today is the day.
Oh, I pray that today is the day,
Bring me back to life!
[Chorus]
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love? [?]
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become.
Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I'll be fine [?]
I just want to be myself again, I want to know that I'm alive!
Please, give me peace, give me joy, give me sanity!
Give me hope, give me love, give me truth.
As they come to life (As they come to life).
I feel my heart beat right out of my chest
And I think I might be losing the fight (I might be losing it).
I live inside my poisoned mind,
It leaves me paralyzed (It leaves me paralyzed).
My vision's blurred, my words are slurred,
I think I might die tonight!
This shadow follows me,
It always keeps me on the edge.
I know that I would never jump,
So why can't I step back from the ledge? Am I losing control?
You take me to the darkest places I have ever been,
I think I feel it coming back again!
[Chorus]
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love? [?]
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become.
Inhale, exhale, why is it so hard to breathe? (Breathe)
Inhale, exhale, why isn't this working!
If I live to see the other side of this,
I swear I'll never take for granted any happiness!
I never knew what I had until it was gone,
How long will this go on!
[Chorus]
Why am I terrified of everything I used to love? [?]
Save me from myself, I don't want to hate who I've become.
Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I'll be fine [?]

Bring me back to life,

Oh, I pray that today is the day,
Bring me back to life!

Give me hope, give me love, give me truth.
