In a Win, Win Situation

I've noticed your design
'Cause I'm not blind
I'm like a cigarette
Burning burning every night
But there's no ash that falls
There's only telephone calls in the afternoon
Stretching through a thousand walls

So I'll pray
For words to say
To make these miles disappear

If you can't sleep alone(If you can't sleep alone)
I'm better off
I'm better off
If you can't sleep alone

If you're measuring with time
In seconds or in lifetimes
There's no difference
It's constantly just passing by
But there's nothing at all
No Valium or slow songs
To relax my view
Just you, maybe your new perfume

So I'll pray
For words to say
To make these miles disappear

If you can't sleep alone(if you can't sleep alone)
I'm better off
I'm better off
If you can't hear the song(if you can't hear the song)
Then turn it off
Then turn if off
If you cast that first stone
Then throw them all
Then throw them all

I start to sleep but it's not over
The second hand is moving slower now
I'd take it all back
To start over again
Just between the rock and paper
The scissors cut in so much deeper
I'd take it all back
To start over again
