Jet Fuel Chemistry - Sleep

Why do we fall?
We scratch the walls
Ashamed of our own behaviour
We shake our heads
And try to buy our friends
But money is not our saviour

Once again
We wallow in the freedom we know
Does it feel less surreal
Every time you tear it down
We're all silent yet divided
In a cage we call our own
Are we the reason we feel so alone?

I never wanted you to throw yourself down in the rain
I tried to reason with fate
Sorry it's just not the same

Why do we fall?
We scratch the walls
Ashamed of our own behaviour
We shake our heads
And try to buy our friends
But money is not our saviour

Afraid of ourselves
We leak our lives
Everything's priceless
When you pay with a knife
We live in a world that we hate
Just to broadcast our day
And brighten up the prison we're in
Are we the plague we're fighting?

Long gone, we are the retribution we seek

High and low
We search for every chance we have left
I'm so confused, are we dead or asleep?
It's not the time for virtue
It'll be the thing that kills you
We needed fear just to pass the day
I never wanted you to throw yourself down in the rain
I tried to reason with fate
Sorry it's just not the same

We were never the same

Afraid of ourselves
We leak our lives
Everything's priceless
When you pay with a knife
We live in a world that we hate
Just to broadcast our day
And brighten up the prison we're in
Are we the plague we're fighting?

Long gone, we are the retribution we seek
I never wanted to sleep, I never wanted it

Why do we fall?
We scratch the walls
Ashamed of our own behaviour
We shake our heads
And try to buy our friends
But money is not our saviour

Afraid of ourselves
We leak our lives
Everything's priceless
When you pay with a knife
We live in a world that we hate
Just to broadcast our day
And brighten up the prison we're in
Are we the plague we're fighting?

Long gone, we are the retribution we seek
I never wanted to sleep, I never wanted it
