I hear the sound of the alarm
My conscience tells me
to wake up but my body say's
OH, let's stay asleep,
My body feels so weak
But I make myself get up out of bed
while I clear my head
I weep for more sleep,
I face the world as the new day begins
with a smile and a grin
while I look out my window
with the gaze of my expression of how I feel
clearing my throat and my mind
while I glance at the toy shop across the street
OH, how it looks so sweet,
I hear my phone ring
it sounds so mean -
while it surrounds my home with it's
an annoying sound that tells me
my day is going to be busy
OH, how I want to go back to sleep
and make some new dreams.
