Why Am I Awake

Got no control of my mind
And it’s messin’ with my REM
I don’t have much to hold on to
I'm losin’ faith in my head
One, two, three days since I could sleep, just let me die

I finish making my bed
While all my limbs are feel like lead
And now my hands are shaking
I hope it’s just my adrenaline

I wanna sleep, no reason
Except I’ve been up
Since the last episode of CSI
And I can’t even remember why
I didn’t just stay in bed
And hold on to a pillow
So I don’t feel alone
Darling, let me tell you
I don’t fucking know

So go on, go on, go on if you were thinking that the sandman’s gonna come
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?
For once, for once, for once I get the feeling that I might drift off
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?
You got control of your mind
And I'm feeling jealous
Cuz I still haven’t slept
And now I just really hate this
I think it’s been a week or
Fuck, something like that
At last I think I might be dead
The world’s spinning ‘round my head
I was a fool to think coffee’d last so long

So go on, go on, go on if you were thinking that the sandman’s gonna come
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?
For once, for once, for once I get the feeling that I might drift off
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?

I think I slept an hour but I might have just lost touch

I'll lay back down
And I'll only frown
When I look around
Cause the colors are so loud

I'll lay back down
And I'll only frown
When I look around
Cause the colors are so loud

I'll lay back down
And I'll only frown

So go on, go on, go on if you were thinking that the sandman’s gonna come
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?
For once, for once, for once I get the feeling that I might drift off
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?

So go on, go on, go on if you were thinking that the sandman’s gonna come
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?
For once, for once, for once I get the feeling that I might drift off
Why am I awake when the sun is coming up?

I think I slept an hour but I might have just lost touch

I'll lay back down
