lyrics

There's reasons for these bags under my eyes.
It's effort I don't give except in lies.
Maybe it's the weight of all the promises I can't keep.
But the universe will not let me sleep.

Let's talk about the time I waste.
All the things I said I'd do, but only say.
Nothing was done today,
but I still feel I shouldn't be awake.

Exhausted from the same old grievance.
Another day, another moral inconvenience.
And who would bat an eye
while the world around them dies?
and who could? I can't seem to close mine.

I wish that we weren't forced to find out.
I wish we never knew what this was about.

There's reasons why we fall so far so fast.
There's reasons why the plusses never last.
And rest is the world's best advice.
But the universe would kill me if I tried.

The time still passes, and I wait.
There's still so much left to do when I'm awake.
I've now lost track of days,
in just one night where all is just a haze.

I've long forgotten what dreams feel like.
Another sleep, another eon lost from daylight.
And who would lend a word?
It's more than just absurd,
but I think this can't be too much worse.

The stars have gone dark, and I'm shaking.
No questions why I deserve anything.

I take my own thoughts with a grain of salt,
when I tell myself that this is all my fault.

No, the universe will not let me sleep.

Grant me a fever dream at least.
