Saw the world turning in my sheets 00:11

And once again, I cannot sleep 00:15

Walk out the door and up the street 00:19

Look at the stars beneath my feet 00:22

Remember rights that I did wrong 00:25

So here I go 00:28

Hello, hello 00:31

There is no place I cannot go 00:34

My mind is muddy but 00:37

My heart is heavy, does it show? 00:41

I lose the track that loses me 00:44

So here I go 00:47

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh 00:50

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh 00:56

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh 01:03

And so I sent some men to fight 01:08

And one came back at dead of night 01:12

Said he'd seen my enemy 01:15

Said he looked just like me 01:18

So I set out to cut myself 01:21

And here I go 01:24

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh 01:27

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh 01:33

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh 01:40

I'm not calling for a second chance 01:46

I'm screaming at the top of my voice 01:51

Give me reason, but don't give me choice 01:58

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again 02:04

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh 02:11

And maybe someday we will meet 02:17

And maybe talk and not just speak 02:20

Don't buy the promises, 'cause 02:23

There are no promises I keep 02:26

And my reflection troubles me 02:29

So here I go 02:33

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh 02:36

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh 02:42

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh 02:48

I'm not calling for a second chance 02:53

I'm screaming at the top of my voice 02:58

Give me reason, but don't give me choice 03:06

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake 03:11

I'm not calling for a second chance 03:18

I'm screaming at the top of my voice 03:23

Give me reason, but don't give me choice 03:31

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again 03:36

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh 03:43

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh 03:49

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh 03:56

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh 04:02

Saw the world turning in my sheets 04:05

04:09

And once again, I cannot sleep 04:11

Walk out the door and up the street 04:17

Look at the stars 04:24

Look at the stars fall down 04:29

And I wonder where 04:37

Did I go wrong 04:43

Lyrics:

[English]

Saw the world turning in my sheets

And once again, I cannot sleep

Walk out the door and up the street

Look at the stars beneath my feet

Remember rights that I did wrong

So here I go

Hello, hello

There is no place I cannot go

My mind is muddy but

My heart is heavy, does it show?

I lose the track that loses me

So here I go

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh

And so I sent some men to fight

And one came back at dead of night

Said he'd seen my enemy

Said he looked just like me

So I set out to cut myself

And here I go

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh

I'm not calling for a second chance

I'm screaming at the top of my voice

Give me reason, but don't give me choice

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh

And maybe someday we will meet

And maybe talk and not just speak

Don't buy the promises, 'cause

There are no promises I keep

And my reflection troubles me

So here I go

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh

I'm not calling for a second chance

I'm screaming at the top of my voice

Give me reason, but don't give me choice

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake

I'm not calling for a second chance

I'm screaming at the top of my voice

Give me reason, but don't give me choice

'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

Ah, ooh-ooh-ooh

Saw the world turning in my sheets

...

And once again, I cannot sleep

Walk out the door and up the street

Look at the stars

Look at the stars fall down

And I wonder where

Did I go wrong

...
