Gonna stay awake,
'cause I don't wanna endure
the weird game of eeriness,
that my thoughts like to play.
Gonna stay awake,
'cause if I lie down,
it'll take me more than a few minutes
to get outta my head -
outta my feelings.
I'll start to think about the loneliness
that keeps chasing me down.
If I lie down, I'll feel alone.
I'll think about my potential box
that I can't get open,
because it has a lock on it.
All the answers that I have...
some of them could possibly be right.
I just can't get the lock off.
Gonna stay awake,
'cause if I put my head down on the uninviting pillow,
the anxiety in my stomach will churn;
until it grants me with nausea,
as I think about the futile fuss and quarrel.
Gonna stay awake,
or else I'll get to thinking
about the wicked ways that my heart wants to relieve itself.
I'll stay awake...somehow.
