But now it's like the night is taking sides With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind

Artist- City and Colour
Song of the day- Sleeping sickness

I've become quite OCD about listening to City and Colour at least once a day. I don't know if it helps or hurts my study habits but I like to think his voice and soothing melodies keeps me a bit emotionally stable and that the fact he is covered in tattoos keeps me a bit bad ass at the same time. It really is the perfect combination. This song especially perfection mostly because I basically can't escape this exact feeling and perhaps I think if i played it over enough times I'll finally feel rested. But beginning 12 hour shifts including nights i think perhaps this might not be the case. So I'll just keep playing it to keep getting me through the day. If you're needed some rest today, this one's for you.



I awoke only to find my lungs empty,
And through the night, so it seems I'm not breathing.
And now my dreams are nothing like they were meant to be,
And I'm breaking down, I think I'm breaking down.

And I'm afraid to sleep because of what haunts me,
Such as living with the uncertainty
That I'll never find the words to say which would completely explain
Just how I'm breaking down

Someone come and, someone come and save my life
Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead,
But now it's like the night is taking sides
With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
Could it be this misery will suffice?

I've become a simple souvenir of someone's kill
And like the sea, I'm constantly changing from calm to ill
Madness fills my heart and soul, as if the great divide could swallow me whole
Oh, how I'm breaking down

Someone come and, someone come and save my life
Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead,
But now it's like the night is taking up sides
With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
Could it be this misery will suffice.

Someone come and, someone come and save my life
Someone come and, someone come and save my life
Someone come and, someone come and save my life
Could it be this misery will suffice.
