Insomnia Child

We're supposed to be young
Breathtaking and immortal
So swift that we'd dissolve
Under touch
Angelic, flawless
Perfected
Blooming

The sun goes down, down
And colors the sky
Right before the stars appear
With all the questions about life
Every how and why
Every lie

Only you were the goddess
And my fingers trembled
Over your skin, your hair
What must you think of me
I'm not that young
I'm only mortal
As you can see

The sun goes down, down
And colors the sky
Right before the stars appear
With all the questions about life
Every how and why
Every lie

Don't you know that we're all sinners
We're all free and decadent minds
What good is insomnia
Except it bought me time
And still I'm sleepless again
And I've put you on the piedestal
Just like back then
I've made you divine, my friend

The sun goes down, down
And colors the sky
Right before the stars appear
With all the questions about life
Every how and why
Every lie

Am I still young if I'm aged in mind
Am I still fearless when your fear is mine
When my trembling fingers no longer reach you
When you dissolve, under touch
So you were angelic, then
At least I know that much

The sun goes down, down
And colors the sky
Right before the stars appear
With all the questions about life
Every how and why
Every lie

The sun goes down, down
Insomnia child
Right with all the remaining fear
With all the questions about life
You will always be wild
You will always be a lie
And after all the truth is just a teaser
