Five Feet

But it's not just you
So don't be afraid
Some nights I'd rather
Just stay awake

Sleep is too risky
'Cause I close my eyes
Who on earth knows what
Could happen tonight

It perplexes me so
Why does my mind
Create a scene where I'm losing you
Every time?

I can't comprehend
It's one way, then the next
And they tell me to sleep,
But I'm trying my best

It's worse than most pain
And I'm so confused
My idiot mind thinks of
All I could lose

You're not alone in this
No, it's not just you
'Cause believe me when I say
I get them too

I can't understand
I can't even try
I don't even know
So please tell me,
Why?
