Cleaner Days

from Tension & Release by Sleep In.

lyrics

I’m drifting in and out of sleep it’s early afternoon
My head is hazy I’ve been drinking for a day or two
I fill myself with things I know will make me feel like shit
I’m losing time and to be honest I’m just sick of it

I’m doing a bad job of acting
Like everything in my life is ok
My head is slowly compacting
Just give it time i’ll be fine
No sign of peace or relaxing
Just give it time it will pass by

This pressing feeling that I’m failing lives inside my head
It pushes down and makes me sick and it starts to spread
I’m crushing medicine I used to keep beside my bed
This kind of feel-good is the feel-good that’ll leave you dead
I’m writing letters to my friends like I am gonna leave
A cigarette is burning as I’m falling back to sleep

I’m doing a bad job of acting
Like everything in my life is ok
My head is slowly compacting
Just give it time i’ll be fine
No sign of peace or relaxing
Just give it time it will pass by

Said you need a little space
Well for goodness sake, just give me a time and place
Wishing we could escape
And find a better way to waste our days away
Are we just falling in love
Did push come to shove
Now we’re wishing for cleaner days, going our separate ways
