How can you sleep while your faucet drips?
How can you sleep while your mother trips?
How can you sleep when your papa is broke?
Feelin all your dreams goin' up in smoke?
How can you sleep when your vacuum don't suck?
How can you sleep when you run shit outta luck?
How can you sleep when the starlight is fallin'?
And those regrets that you got in your head just keep crawlin'?
How can you sleep when you've been up for days?
How can you sleep when you've lost all your ways?
How can you sleep when your dog wants a bite?
And he's howling at you in pain in the night?
How can you sleep when you lost your last nerve?
How can you sleep when you're drained of your verve?
How can you sleep when you're dizzy and sullen?
And your woman don't quit all the tricks she's been pullin'?
Where do you go when you can't help but lose?
When the only thing wrong is whatever you choose?
Where should you sleep when you're trapped on the brink?
When you're chased to the edge by the scene that you think?
How do you get up when there's no way to win?
If you can't make it out, why should you begin?
Well if the world is so big, so bad, and so wrong,
Why don't you realize it's just where you belong?
Keep on rockin
Scotto
