I Lie Awake
I lie awake in bed
But I can't pick up the telephone
I can't believe that you are gone away from here
The thoughts run through my head
But I know that I am not alone
I know there's something here 'n this room with me
But I can't figure out where it's coming from
And it makes me turn around and look behind me
There isn't any doubt the spirits run about to remind me
The night is filled with clouds
The moon is rising in the trees
The cold wind blows
It cuts right through me
I hope that I'm found out
'cause I can't stand this misery
I have to confess this tragedy
To somebody
But the spirits they control my very destiny
They make me turn around and look behind me
And there isn't any doubt, that my crime will be found out
Too many broken strings
She said she'd always be
Another breathing part of me
But she knew too much
She saw what she shouldn't see
She made me step in
Commit the most mortal sin
Trade her life
To keep mine
But the ghosts keep appearing in my restless dreams
They hold me in the dark and hellish night
And they'll never go away till I face my judgment day
And give her my life
