D-DU-UDU
It's like I don't have the patience
Or the willpower to separate myself
From this inundated era I've been dealt
And all across the nation
Pixelated screens light up the night
Of insomniacs and night owls alike
But we can turn off the lights; the sun's comin' up
No dreams tonight to interrupt
Turn off the alarm before it sounds
Get out of bed without putting your head down, down
I've been closing my eyes real tight
But the space between my lids betrays the light
So I'm up again, I've lost the will to fight
The scrolling information
Pulls me in and holds me in a trance
Link to link, no I don't stand a chance
-Chorus
Stay awake with me
In the darkness you will see
What I've known all along, all along
Quiet strumming):
Baby when you're sleeping
I wonder if you see me in your dreams
Do you know exactly what it means
(Louder)
Maybe we are falling
And when I hit the ground I disappear
But you open up your eyes and I'm still here
-Chorus, then:
Down, down, down
