not sleeping anymore

the things that i know

never been in love and
it doesn’t matter
my heart beats to deliver blood
love doesn’t matter

sometimes i wake to voices in my sleep
conditioning me to believe
guidelines and boundaries
will give my mind more time to think

and the things that i know
don’t give me hope,
and the things that i don’t
still bother me.

every one belongs to every one
every one belongs to every one else
every one belongs to every one
every one belongs to every one else

i dream in color tv
when i dream of you and me
we are breaking from captivity
we wear our hearts on our sleeves
and say love words that we believe

and the things that we know,
give us hope
and the things that we don’t,
keep us from being alone

every one belongs to every one
every one belongs to every one else
every one belongs to every one
every one belongs to every one else
