[Verse 1]
3 a.m., laying in bed
Fighting off my tired eyes
Wrap myself in white noise
To drown out the thoughts in my mind
Apparently, counting sheep
Just doesn't get me too far
'Cause by the time I get to five
Four, three, two, one
There you are
[Chorus]
I see you in REM
And it rips the band-aid off again
When I wake, when I wake, when I wake up
I still feel the pain all the same, though
I see you in REM
What seemed so real was all pretend
When I wake, when I wake, when I wake up
You're gone again until the next night
[Post-Chorus]
No I don't, no I don't, don't wanna sleep tonight
'Cause I know, 'cause I know, you're gon' let the bedbugs bite
(When I wake, when I wake, When I wake up)
No I don't, no I don't, no I don't
(You're gone again until the next night)
No I don't, no I don't, no I don't
[Verse 2]
7 am, sun is peeking through my blinds
I'mma hit snooze about fourteen more times
Can't tell if the bluebird is singing or he's crying
Bittersweet tune, it could be a lullaby
Even in my dreams, you don't speak
But you're right there
A ghost of who I once knew
Does that make you a nightmare?
I'm running, but my feet don't move
My subconscious still can't shake you
[Chorus]
So I see you in REM
And it rips the band-aid off again
When I wake, when I wake, when I wake up (When I wake up)
I still feel the pain all the same, though (All the same, though)
I see you in REM
What seemed so real was all pretend
When I wake, when I wake, when I wake up
You're gone again until the next night
[Outro]
No I don't, no I don't, don't wanna sleep tonight
'Cause I know, 'cause I know, you're gon' let the bedbugs bite
(When I wake, when I wake, when I wake up)
No I don't, no I don't, no I don't
(You're gone again until the next night)
No I don't, no I don't, no I don't
No I don't, no I don't, don't wanna sleep tonight
'Cause I know, 'cause I know, you're gon' let the bedbugs bite
No I don't, no I don't, no I don't
No I don't, no I don't, no I don't
No I don't, no I don't, don't wanna sleep tonight
'Cause I know, 'cause I know, you're gon' let the bedbugs bite
When I wake, when I wake, when I wake up
You're gone again until the next night
