[Intro]

*sigh* Hello


[Verse 1]

Life moves too fast, I'll rest when I'm dead

But nothing ever moves faster than the thoughts in my head

I think all night, now I'm pacing again

Like I'm afraid of my bed, so now I'm running away

Off to fix another mistake

Whatever that may be, I'ma make it okay

I just wanna do good on my way to be great!

Now I'm spinning these plates while I'm spinning in place 'cause


[Chorus]

I don't get sleep, I'm too far gone

Don't even got the energy to write this song

So la-da-di-da-di-da-di-dum

Da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum-dum

I toss and turn up all night long

Thought I was getting better, boy was I wrong

La-da-di-da-di-da-di-dum

Da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum-dum


[Verse 2]

The pressure on mе makes me feel like a diamond

I lookеd for a solution but I truly couldn't find it

My enemies give their opinions instead of minding

Their business, just sit and listen, why don't you try it?

There's nobody else in the world who can do it like me

Even if there was, I wouldn't trust them easy

I can barely find the time to eat or breathe

So what does that mean for me? Well


[Chorus]

I don't get sleep, I'm too far gone

Don't even got the energy to write this song

So la-da-di-da-di-da-di-dum

Da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum-dum

I toss and turn up all night long

Thought I was getting better, boy was I wrong

La-da-di-da-di-da-di-dum

Da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum-dum


[Verse 3]

I'm a simple man and have a simple want

To be the best to ever do it, and the best that ever was

I will scream, and scratch, and crawl, and bash my way up to the top

If any friend becomes a burden, a burden will get dropped

I am not being harsh, I'm just doing what I must

I move smart and I am careful who I trust

I plot and plan, take a chance, but never count on luck

So why do I feel stuck?

(Are you even trying?)


[Chorus]

I don't get sleep, I'm too far gone

Don't even got the energy to write this song

So la-da-di-da-di-da-di-dum

Da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum-dum

I toss and turn up all night long

Thought I was getting better, boy was I wrong

La-da-di-da-di-da-di-dum

Da-da-dum, da-da-dum, dum-dum


[Outro]

Da-da-da-da-dum, da-da-da-da-dum

La-da-di-da-di-da-di-dum
