Wide eyed awake
But still tired
The alarm sings a start of a new day
When will I stop living this way?
Day after day it's the same story
When will it cease?
(When will it cease?)
Restless nights are infecting me
With a disease that has no name
Harmless to the body
Exhausting to the brain
Who will heal me?
Wasting my days
With my head in my arms
I sit there begging
My eyes not to close
Why can't it be, this easy to sleep at night?
I lay awake
Thinking about what could have been
This disease is conquering me
I've given up I am letting it win
With all this money I have
I can't buy an hour of sleep
Slumber is not for sale
But alcohol is dirt cheap
Wide eyed
Awake but still tired
This distress that controls my mind;
Feels like I'm being buried alive
I have become nocturnal
Without a choice
This disease is conquering me
I've given up I am letting it win
With all this money I have
I can't buy an hour of sleep
My stress and demons conspire
Clear thoughts are all I desire
