Secretly sleeping

There ain’t no sunshine in the middle of the night
There ain’t no teardrop in the middle of this fight
I see the clock keep ticking on
The hours pass while my mind is not done
Picture frames of crime scenes are flashing
Before my eyes, across my eyelashes
Wait in desire
Wait until the morning comes
Wait ‘till I’m secretly sleeping

There ain’t no sunshine in the middle of the night
There ain’t no savior in the middle of this fight
Terrifying light is blinding my full sight
Rhythmic noise of lovers, stabbing me right
This is my redemption song
My three minute model of liberation
Wait in desire
Wait ‘till the morning comes
Daylight is chasing me
Wait in desire
Wait ‘til the morning comes

Wait in desire
Wait ‘til the morning comes
Daylight is chasing me
Wait in desire
Wait ‘til the morning comes
Daylight is chasing me
Wait in desire
Wait ‘til the morning comes
‘Till I’m secretly sleeping
