lyrics

I comprehend,
I've not been getting no sleep again,
From purely questioning,
The passive way of wasting time.
I understand,
That if I stay up watching grains of sand,
Pour from my life glass,
Then I still hold the upper hand.

Let me persuade you;
Woahhh oh
So stay away with me so;
Woahhh oh.

I hope you, send a postcard,
From your happy little dreamland paradise,
With your fast cars and your free bars,
You wish, would only come true.
Your nightmares. are the worst part,
Waking up feeling like you've broke your heart,
But I steer clear, of the night fears
By simply never going to sleep,
By simply never going to sleep.

I can't pretend,
That it's a problem that I won't amend,
But I always seem to lose more sleep,
When I attempt.
I wait for light to paint my window.
Pay the price when I wake up though,
The chance of rest that I deny.

Is catching up so;
Woahhh oh,
Stay awake with me so;
Woahhh oh.

I hope you, send a postcard,
From your happy little dreamland paradise,
With your fast cars and your free bars,
You wish, would only come true.
Your nightmares. are the worst part,
Waking up feeling like you've broke your heart,
But I steer clear, of the night fears
By simply never going to sleep.

Woahhh oh,
Stay awake with me so;
Woahhh oh.

I comprehend,
I've not been getting no sleep again,
From purely questioning,
The passive way of wasting time.
I understand,
That if I stay up watching grains of sand,
Pour from my life glass,
Then I still hold the upper hand.

about

Black Thorn UK

On our journey to finding the "new sound" we took too much, had a few too many and ended up somewhere around whatever we are now. Like a 21st century list of genders, our musical fluidity knows no bounds. Through combining heavy folk instrumentation with elements of rock, funk, pop-punk, blues and dance. We now come fully loaded with full drum kit and keys to every party.
