Lyrics
Sometimes
They?ll strip ya clean
Just to see what you got
See what you?re made of
Like a newborn
It?s just you against the world

Now I lay me down
Wrapped in frozen sheets
Nothing goin? right
I?m not feelin? so good
I?m not lookin? behind
I see straight ahead

Sometimes I feel so clean
Sometimes like a dump
What am I made of
Like a newborn
Only hope that I can breathe

California is nigh
I don?t even know why
I?m just goin? that way
I got nothin? to prove
I got plenty I know
I don?t give it away

Sometime
When I?m too tired
I can?t get no sleep
Can?t shut my brain up
Like a nightmare
I can?t find my dreams

Come & lay me down
Under softer sheets
Not to say goodnight
I can?t see you so good

Like I know I should
Turn the lights up bright
