City and Colour - The Sleeping Sickness Lyrics

I Awoke 
Only to find my lungs empty 
And through the night, so it seems I'm not breathing 
And now my dreams are nothing like they were meant to be 
And I'm breaking down, I think I'm breaking down 

And I'm afraid to sleep because of what haunts me 
Such as living with the uncertainty 
That I'll never find the words to say 
Which would completely explain 
Just how I'm breaking down 

Someone come and, someone come and 
Save my life 
Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead but now it's like the night is taking sides 
All the worries that occupy the back of my mind 
Could it be? This misery will suffice 

I've become 
A simple souvenir of someone's kill 
Like the sea, I'm constantly changing from calm to hell 
Madness fills my heart and soul as if the great divide could swallow me whole 
Oh, how I'm breaking down 

Someone come and, someone come and 
Save my life 
Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead but now it's like the night is taking sides 
All the worries that occupy the back of my mind 
Could it be? This misery will suffice 

Someone come and, someone come and 
Save my life (x3) 
Could it be? This misery will suffice
