I’m Not Sleeping

Sinamantes

Compositor: Mariá Portugal

I’m not sleeping
I’ve walked a hundred miles
And I’m not sleeping
Night has come twice
Morning has arrived and I’m not
Sleeping

I’m not sleeping
Dreams before my eyes
And I’m not dreaming
Trying to stay still
Silence fills the room
Noises roam outside
Thoughts run through my mind
Car lights on a highway
Show up and then disappear
Nothing stays with me

I’m just dreaming
Facing death inside me with my eyes open
Never had before this very odd feeling
A huge time bomb
In total silence
You should come and see

I’m just dreaming
Facing death inside of me with eyes open
Never had before this very odd feeling
A huge time bomb
And no ticking
