|
It's like |
|
I don't have the patience, |
|
Or the will power to separate myself |
|
From this inundating era |
|
I've been dealt |
|
And all across the nation |
|
Pixelated screens light up the night |
|
Of insomniacs and night owls alike |
|
But we can turn off the lights |
|
The sun's coming up |
|
No dreams tonight to interrupt |
|
Turn off the alarm before it sounds |
|
And get out of bed without putting your head down |
|
I've been closing my eyes real tight |
|
But the space between my lids betrays the light |
|
So I'm up again, |
|
I lost the will to fight |
|
The scrolling information |
|
Pulls me in and holds me in a trance |
|
Link to link, no |
|
I don't stand a chance |
|
And we can turn off the lights |
|
The sun's coming up |
|
No dreams tonight to interrupt |
|
Turn off the alarm before it sounds |
|
And get out of bed without putting your head down |
|
Stay awake with me |
|
In the darkness you will see |
|
What I've known all along, all along |
|
Baby when you're sleeping |
|
I wonder if you see me in your dreams |
|
Do you know exactly what it means |
|
Maybe we are falling |
|
And when I hit the ground |
|
I disappear |
|
But you open up your eyes and |
|
I'm still here |
|
And we can turn off the lights |
|
The sun's coming up |
|
No dreams tonight to interrupt |
|
Turn off the alarm before it sounds |
|
Get out of bed without putting your head down |
|
Down, down, down |
