I'm Not Sleeping

I'm Not Sleeping (Chambers)

Story Behind The Song

Reaching for your aura, ohh

I feel it everywhere you've been

It's like an echo resounding in a

Canyon of forever preserved

Looking for some motivation

To remain on this steady path

Submitting to indoctrination in this

Lost world, heretofore unknown

I'm not sleeping, I'm not sleeping, so much anymore

Covers, blankets, making me too warm, too warm

I'm not sleeping, I'm not sleeping, as much as I crave to

Meet me halfway, show up just once when I call

The steady hum of those machines

Surrounding everywhere I treadS

Avoid electrical shorts in my emotions

Returning to the house where you dwell

Still I'm tired as hell, in need of therapy

A simple hug, support in the eves

Your image may lurk but it's just a mirage

Don't stay disappeared...come back now

I'm not sleeping, I'm not sleeping, so much anymore

Covers, blankets, making me too warm, too warm

I'm not sleeping, I'm not sleeping, as much as I crave to

Meet me halfway, show up just once when I call...

I wish I could get some sleep…

I started writing this song one night around 2am, unable to fall asleep. At that point, I just had the first four lines of the song and no melody.
