I could do more than just sleeping
I never want to put my things down and rest
I dread my mind and body tiring
I feel like I'm not doing my best

I don't want to waste a third of my life
There are things I could do  more of
If I only utilized more of my life
My success could fly high like a dove

I want to write a book
I want to learn to cook
I want to dance
I want to take a chance

I don't want to waste away
knowing that I could seize the day

I want to do something more
I don't want to close a door
All for a bit of rest
Sleep is what I detest
