Put Me to Sleep

I've been drifting in and out
Sorting the whispers and the shouts
And putting some pieces back in place
But since when has anyone sorted out their own space

I don't want to be that guy
But I know what I am I can't lie
Lurking in the corners and hating any orders
A liar and a cheat and a fool
Tell me what to do

I've been trying to leave home
Or at least trying to be more alone
But honestly I miss the action
I'm always looking for distraction
A pill or a show
A kiss or a fuck
Maybe the odd bit of luck
I like to keep my head spinning
The voices don't stop but at least they're not winning

I don't want to be that guy
But I know what I am I can't lie
Lurking in the corners and hating any orders
A liar and a cheat and a fool
Tell me what to do
Make it end I can feel myself descend
When I lie awake
I swear the earth shakes
What can I say? I don't want to stay
I've got nothing left to keep so please
Let me sleep

I might be in too deep
I might be in too deep
Put me to sleep

I don't want to be that guy
But I know what I am I can't lie
Lurking in the corners and hating any orders
A liar and a cheat and a fool
Tell me what to do
Make it end I can feel myself descend
When I lie awake
I swear the earth shakes
What can I say? I don't want to stay
I've got nothing left to keep so please
Let me sleep
