Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  can't get to sleep
I  think about the  implications
Of  diving in too deep
And  possibly the  complications
Especially  at night
I  worry over situations
I  know will be alright
Perhaps  its just  my imagination
Day  after day it  reappears
Night  after night my heartbeat, shows  the fear
Ghosts  appear and fade away
Alone  between the  sheets
Only  brings exasperation
It's  time to walk the streets
Smell  the desperation
At  least there's  pretty lights
And  though there's little  variation
It  nullifies the  night
From  overkill...
Day  after day it  reappears
Night  after night my heartbeat, shows  the fear
Ghosts  appear and fade away  come  back another day..
 Follows the same pattern)
I  can't get to sleep
I  think about the  implications
Of  diving in too  deep
And  possibly the  complications
Especially  at night
I  worry over situations
I  know will be alright
It's  just overkill
Day  after day it reappears
Night  after night my heartbeat, shows  the fear
Ghosts  appear and fade away
Ghosts  appear and fade away......
Ghosts  appear and fade away.......................
