Alone, I'm searching for devotion in a faded melody My soul is trying to cross an ocean down on bended knee Lock up my cadence and rhyme; don't know what I'm trying to say All the time was stolen by bad poetry Some nights I talk to myself I say the words that I could say to no one else And some nights I talk in my sleep I say the words I never said when you were with me Some nights I talk to myself I say the words that I could say to no one else And some nights I talk in my sleep I say the words I never said when you were with me I'm gone. The nightmares cut me open - love's insanity So long. Words are left unspoken. I couldn't set them free Watch all the language run dry Thoughts go on holiday I'm left with a broken vocabulary Some nights I talk to myself I say the words that I could say to no one else And some nights I talk in my sleep I say the words I never said when you were with me Some nights I talk to myself I say the words that I could say to no one else And some nights I talk in my sleep I say the words I never said when you were with me
