Songtexte Counting Sheep - recorded for triple j - SAFIA

I never make a sound
Fingers crossed, I shut my mouth
Thoughts, they're creeping through my teeth
Drip drop, the night is loud
Silence seems to drown me out
Box my thoughts and give me some relief

I wanna let you down
Make you toss and turn around
Won't you give me what I need?
I wanna let you down
Always lost and never found
Won't you give me what I need?

Tick tock, make me creep
Never ending counting sheep
Never get no sleep
Tick tock, make me creep
Never ending counting sheep
Never get no sleep

Don't drop the curtains down
Darkness is the whole surround
My mind is lurking at my feet
Criss cross, the night is sour
Pupils fixed on every hour
Sunrise is the only thing that's sweet

I wanna let you down
Make you toss and turn around
Won't you give me what I need?
I wanna let you down
Always lost and never found
Won't you give me what I need?

Tick tock, make me creep
Never ending counting sheep
Never get no sleep
Tick tock, make me creep
Never ending counting sheep
Never get no sleep
Tick tock, make me creep
Never ending counting sheep
Never get no sleep
Tick tock, make me creep
Never ending counting sheep
Never get no sleep
