Illuminate me like the electricity a light
These drooping eyes put up another fight
Lost in the memories of yesterday
I'm seemingly running out of things to say
So light me up like the morning sun
Jumpstart my mind 'till it starts to run
Procrastinate to my hearts content
And twist the words in the message I sent
But this is where it starts to get real
I start to lose the love I feel
And regret how much I've changed
How so much my life's rearranged
I've lost control as it spins away
Through rhymes is how I must convey
The true selfish intentions
Of my cruel mountain ascension
