Still awake, still awake, what should I do?

Time flies by, bid it adieu

The daytime’s such a bore

I just need to work a little more

Getting late, getting late, I should stop now...

My reasoning disallows

I’m always so carefree

But I don’t dare care what waits for me

It can’t wait, it can’t wait, in a hurry

The darkness swells with fury

I can feel myself slipping

What’s important seems to keep flipping

It’s too late? It’s too late? I still can’t tell

The clock ticks, bid your farewells

I find I’m far behind

I’ve made my mistakes please let me rewind

I can’t stand to tell you how late I stayed up

If you try it you’ll feel quite a rush

Long-past dеadlines and missing follow-ups

Thoughts all turned to mush

Was this all for naught?

I can’t tell. Doing swеll, yet unwell

Thoughts run ‘round my brain

All my feelings start to rot!

Just calm down, clear your mind

I’m not fine, I can’t lie

I’ll lie here in the silence

Waiting for the morning

Still, I’m awake

Past mistakes. I feel great, but it aches

I just want to let it all go, but I won’t change!

All along, was it me?

It’s my fault clear as can be

I’ll sit here in the sibilance

And talk with you

Full of pain, full of pain, I still can’t sleep

I cringe at every beep

Who knows how long it’s been…

Since 9PM I knew I’d never win

Lament, lament, what I can’t have

Ideally I’m split half

Always, this self-pity

Cry some more, your life’s oh so shi-

Wide awake, wide awake, bright and blinding

The clock is still unwinding

I’m full of entropy

Cataclysmic, my reality

No escape, no escape, cry and like it

My reasoning is split

You must think I’m asleep…

Want to go back, but I’m in too deep

I can’t stand to tell you how late I stayed up

If you try it you’ll feel quite a rush

Long-past deadlines and missing follow-ups

Is this what I want?

I can’t stand to tell you how late I stayed up

If you try it you’ll feel quite a rush

Long-past deadlines are piling up

This is what I want

...was this all for naught?

I don’t know! Doing swell! Wish you well

The world ends inside my brain

All my progress down the drain!

Just calm down, clear your mind

I’m just fine, I can’t lie!

I’ll lie here in the screaming

Waiting for an ending

But I’m a fake!

Past mistakes. I feel great, it’s not hate!

I just want to let go

But I think you’ve always known

All along, it was me

It’s my fault for all to see!

I’ll sit here in the endless void

And talk with you

I’ve only truly been awake since 9PM
