My Chemical Romance
Sister to Sleep (live 2022)
[Verse One]
Crash into this institution
One way to resolution
I'm putting off this medication
It always makes me tired
'Cause I can't ever sleep at night the same
This disarray I make with and almost every day because
I can't play pretend

[Verse Two]
I'm wide awake most minutes
I'm not asleep most days
When I close my eyelids
I see light
What did I say?

[Chorus]
Well did I say too much, Sister Sleep?
And lie awake I die
And I'll never go to bed

[Post-Chorus]
Out the window, back into this room

[Verse Three]
Another constant anthem will crash, you're falling again
'Cause I can't shake the pain of what it's like to pretend
This is why I always save the greater thoughts of my intention
And one last night, I'll kiss their lips again
What did I say?
[Chorus]
Well did I say too much, Sister Sleep?
And lie awake I die
Will I never go to bed?

[Post-Chorus]
Dark seeks me too
I seek a light
I see life and this time I am home

[Bridge]
For the last time
Seem perfect this way, far enough away
Right here, right now
Don't let me sleep tonight
Just give me peace tonight
Don't let me sleep tonight, I'm lost again
Let me sleep
What did I say?

[Chorus]
Well did I say too much, Sister Sleep?
And lie awake I die
Will I never go to sleep?

[Post-Chorus]
Dark seeks me too
I seek a light
Left inside your hole and kill this time
