I used to get angry, I used to get mad
I lost my direction, my karma was bad
While looking for glory, I found the pretence
All mounting to nothing, the years I spent

Trying to understand, the things that cut me so deep
I tried to make sense of all your sad little games
But the deeper I got, I found more of the same

But I will sleep at night, sleep at night
Sleep at night, oh yeah
I'll sleep tonight, sleep tonight, sleep tonight

I had to look deeper, I needed the key
The whys and the wherefores, should I let it be?
The clues werе so hidden, but under the smilе, something was broken, it wasn't your style

You were losing the plot, the train departed long ago
The pack were behind you, they were hungry for food
But I couldn't desert you, you were standing in the nude
But I will sleep at night, sleep at night
Sleep at night, oh yeah
I'll sleep tonight, sleep tonight, sleep tonight

It wasn't for money, it don't make things right
It wasn't for kudos, I hated the limelight
I was shaking with anger, I couldn't take more
So I walked away softly, and closed that door

Don't wanna hold your hand, I moved away from the brink
I won't be going that way again
I don't need the torment, the lies and the pain

I wanna sleep at night, sleep at night
Sleep at night, oh yeah
I'll sleep tonight, sleep tonight, sleep tonight

I looked at your forecast, the outlook was bleak
You put your foot in it each time you speak
The porkies get bigger, they grow and they grow
The reaper is smiling, he knows what you've sown

Take another look, the cracks are starting to show
You can't fool the people if you spread it so thin
They'll see through your pseudo, and they'll make you jack it in
But I will sleep tonight, sleep tonight
Sleep tonight oh yeah
I'll sleep tonight, sleep tonight, sleep tonight
I will sleep at night, sleep at night
Sleep at night, oh yeah, I'll sleep
