[Intro]
(Smooth electric piano chords, a low-fi hiss starts)
[Verse 1]
The clock is ticking like a leaking tap
You’re staring at the shadows on the map
I’m the secret that you can’t unwrap
A little sugar, but a rhythmic trap
[Verse 2]
I heard you tried to drink some herbal tea
To wash away the stubborn ghost of me
But darling, I’m the pulse you can’t decree
The restless twitch inside your lonely knee
[Chorus]
Three a.m. and I am wide awake
A bitter pill that’s far too sweet to take
I’m the fever that you’ll never shake
The golden rule you’re dying just to break
[Chorus]
Don’t look for exits, there is no way out
I’m the whisper and the silent shout
The only thing you’ll never have to doubt
Is that I’m all you’re thinking about
[Verse 3]
You’re counting sheep but they have all gone gray
The sun is just a million miles away
I’m the debt that you will never pay
The witty line you forgot to say
[Bridge]
[Instrumental solo: Muted trumpet with a smoky reverb]
No sleep for the wicked, or the ones in love
Just the ceiling fan spinning high above
[Outro]
Brewing in your veins
In the pouring rains
I’m the heavy stain
That remains.
(Fade out with a single bass note)
