Dear Johnny,
I'm callin' you now
Cuz I know you're not asleep
It's 2 A.M. right now
It's dead out on the streets
It's the death without the murder
The kill without the cries
The silence after midnight
The speech without the lies
Johnny, put the gun down
Stop beating yourself dead
I just want a conversation
So for a moment keep your head
Johnny, put the knives away
I can't hear you for the screams
I wanna tell you a story
Only you'll understand what it means
So listen to-
What I gotta say
It's only a short phrase or two
Keep the monster at bay
I want to hear your story, too
Paint the walls another day
Cuz right now, I can't sleep
I need somebody to talk to
Before the Sandman comes for me
Dear Johnny,
It's 2:15 right now
On another sleepless night
The moon is but a memory
But the stars are oh-so bright
The streets are oh-so silent
Won't you take me for a ride?
Stop screwing with those assholes
Put off the day they die
Johnny, I just wanna talk to you
I don't know yet what about
Give me a hint, and idea,
Maybe help me figure it out
Johnny, won't you please talk to me?
I don't want to just talk to the phone
Our voices are only static
But let's pretend for one night we're not alone
So listen to-
What I gotta say
It's only a short phrase or two
Keep the monster at bay
I want to hear your story, too
Paint the walls another day
Cuz right now, I don't wanna sleep
I need somebody near to keep me awake
To keep the Sandman far from me
I'm questioning my reasons
For closing my eyes
The sleep that comes so slowly
Is not what's keeping me alive
I'm so tired
I'm questioning my dreams
What do they offer me?
What do they really mean?
I need to say goodnight
I need to go to sleep
I don't want to say goodbye
I'm questioning sleep
Johnny, please don't let me fall-
Johnny, please don't let me fall-
Johnny, please don't let me fall-
Johnny, please don't let me
Fall
Asleep
So listen to-
What I gotta say
It's only a short phrase or two
Keep the monster at bay
I want to hear your story, too
Paint the walls another day
Come on, Johnny, keep me awake
Cuz I don't want to fall asleep
I need to hear your voice now
So the Sandman doesn't come for me
Thank you, Johnny
