[Verse 1]

Asked her where are my pills, she says "Don't know"

The withdrawal kicks in but I don't show

She gon' fix me with Oxy, I said "No"

Ain't goin' so low

In the night it goes sideways, I might cry

I just wanna die

In my mind there's a lie that I'll be fine

If I just get high

This ain't me, I just need

Something to set me free

In my mind there's a lie that I'll be fine

If I just get high


[Chorus]

I'm scared to fall asleep

So all night I lie in bed

I'm trying not to dream

Afraid of what I'll see

I'm scared to close my eyes

'Cause I might sleep too deep

I'm terrified I won't get up


[Verse 2]

Let's invite all my demons to come in

Keep ‘em happy and close to the party

Maybe they'll take a break from haunting me

Gimme a minute (Oh, I can't fucking breathe)

I only wanna be alone

Feelin' shit in my zone

This existential crisis is my own

I'm not the only to get dragged down by my burden

It is my fault, I am to blame of that I'm certain

Play time

It's time to play hide and seek with my psychosis

Break time

There's no break time, I'm always on the run


[Chorus]

I'm scared to fall asleep

So all night I lie in bed

I'm trying not to dream

Afraid of what I'll see

I'm scared to close my eyes

'Cause I might sleep too deep

I'm terrified I won't get up


[Bridge]

My demons don't show in the day when I feel fine

It's getting too dark, shit, I think it's nearly play time


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm scared to fall asleep

So all night I lie in bed

I'm trying not to dream

Afraid of what I'll see


[Chorus]

I'm scared to fall asleep

So all night I lie in bed

I'm trying not to dream

Afraid of what I'll see

I'm scared to close my eyes

'Cause I might sleep too deep

I'm terrified I won't get up


[Outro]

I try not to dream

I try not to dream

I'm terrified I won't get up

I try not to dream

I try not to...
