Lyrics for Sleepless

In the dream, I fall into the sleepless sea With a swell of panic and pain My veins are aching for the distant reef In the crush of emotional waves Alright, get a hold of yourself And don't fight it, it's over your head It's alright, the rumble in your ears It's alright to feel a little fear And don't fight it, it's over your head It's alright, you wake up in your bed Silhouettes like shivering ancient feelings They cover my foreign floors and walls Submarines are lurking in my foggy ceiling They keep me sleepless at night Alright, get a hold of yourself And don't fight it, it's over your head It's alright, the rumble in your ears It's alright to feel a little fear And don't fight it, it's over your head It's alright, you wake up in your bed Hey, can you picture the sight? The figures on the beach in the searing night And the roaring hurt of my silent fight Hey Well can you pull me out Of this sleepless night? Oh Of this sleepless night Can you pull me out? Oh, oh-oh-oh Can you help me now? Can you pull me out? Hey Oh
