lyrics

I try to find a shelter from this blinding light
Kaleidoscope mind keep me up all night
There's peace and quiet all over town
But I just can't pull these shutters down

I lie in my bed but the room is too bright
I've had a nightcap and I'm high as a kite
So I get outta bed and I put on my gown
'cause I just can't pull these shutters down

And in the morning I'm in a daze
I try to blow this fog away
My eyes explode from this fiery glow
'cause I been shut awake for days

Insomnia
No I just cant drift away

I got a cold speed demon tugging at my hand
I try to fend him off with diazepam
but when I open my eyes I see he's still hanging round
And I just can't pull these shutters down
