insomnia - the small calamities lyrics

you’re having trouble sleeping again
liturgy rolling around in your brain
midwest medicine don’t stop the pain
bury your eyes in the cotton

but i would take those thoughts with me
for you to have a night of peace
i would stay awake and bleed
i would never sleep

i hear those songs playing in my car
never believed i could fall so hard
whitney and taylor were singing ’bout you
all of the wrong turns i took before
you showed up day drinking at my door
all of the walls that you crashed your way through
’cause i was just sleeping (i was just sleeping, sleeping)
til i woke up with you
forty five on the outskirts of town
seatbelt just keeping your head off the ground
overwhelmed by the sirens and sounds
welcoming you to the pavement

but i would rearrange my spine
take your scars and make them mine
held by only love and twine, perfectly aligned

someone told me love is giving someone power
it’s too late to take back all the nineties hits
that i sang in your shower

yeah, i know, it can’t all be divine
nothing worth having comes without a crime
percy priest for a nickel of time
melting back onto the tarmac
but i would settle up the score
cross my heart straight through the floor
like some agnostic holy war
i’d be at your door

i will take what’s left of me, skeleton and scenery
return a wave back to the sea
i will never sleep
