They say sorry we’re late
She says don’t bother, it’s late
No apologies after midnight
And it’s way after midnight

She’s not mad, she’s just leaving
She haven’t slept the whole evening
She’s going home to not sleep some more
Good night they say, she’s out the door

Without the voices in her head
There are pins and needles in her bed
Not as much as a whisper she got
And since they were late it’s too late

She’ll be gone
At the end of this song
Sound waves
Sound bounce
Sound is safe
Safe and sound
Her life don’t exist without sound

Insomnia has already arrived
Ready to fight all through the night
Whispering a lullaby to herself
If only to silence the quiet

Lying to herself while lying on the floor
Looking for truth but finds the front door
Outside is fresh air and only darkness
Still her feet steer her to the right address

Without the voices in her head
There are pins and needles in her bed
Not as much as a whisper she got
Insomnia arrived, and it’s too late

She’ll be gone
At the end of this song
Sound waves
Sound bounce
Sound is safe
Safe and sound
Her life don’t exist without sound

She often goes here to walk the line
Made out by platform and subway-rail
She loves the whooshing feeling and sound
When the subs fly by almost pulling her down

It’s the game she likes to play the most
How close can one get before it’s too close
A dangerous game, but still a game
Just one whoosh away from never the same

Without the voices in her head
There are pins and needles in her bed
Not as much as a whisper she got
Now sub is coming and it’s too late

She’ll be gone
At the end of this song
Sound waves
Sound bounce
Sound is safe
Safe and sound
Her life don’t exist without sound

Her innocent body they won’t find
It never caught up with her sinners mind
As the train slows, her heart slows
As sound fades, so does her face

She’ll be gone
At the end of this song
Sound waves
Sound bounce
Sound is safe
Safe and sound
Her life don’t exist without sound
