Insomnia

lyrics

(Verse One)

I've been very irritated lately,
and I think that's irritating them.
My mind keeps going like a clock,
looking at my wrist, trying to find my watch.
Where does time go? What's the past mean?
The date advances, but nothing flies past me.
I'm just sitting here, staring into space,
it's cold outside my window,
they don't stop to embrace.
My curtains aren't drawn but they don't look inside,
they speed right past like a drive-by.
So I'm sitting here with my mind,
who don't like me half of the time.
So now I'm running circles through my head,
figuring the meaning of myself.
What's purpose, when it's not purposely felt?
Work through the night,
it beats working in hell.

(Chorus)

Tell me what is truth,
tell me what is new,
between me and you, yeah.
'Cause I'm just sitting here,
talking to myself,
I ain't heard from you yet.

(Verse Two)

This is on that 'nah, I don't really need to sleep yet,
but I'm kinda hungry, is it late to eat yet?
Maybe I'll just sit and have a cup of tea.
Tea and me is poetry, don't you see?'
Hopefully, I'll evoke a type of something,
we can smoke without getting you high,
but I'm feeling really dope, it's not a joke,
I hope you hear me, hear me quite clearly.
We dream about eternity, learn from me.
Eternally I learn to be, everything I dreamed of earning,
what I see. Maybe I should try and go to sleep?
'Cause lately all I do is see, things that I shouldn't,
'cause my mind is too awake.
Can I act like I'm different, like everybody else?
The world never sleeps, I guess I'm good for God's sake,
in trouble we confide 'cause,
life is derived from the darkness we see when it's night time.

(Chorus)

(Outro)

I try to understand things but,
I really don't know how to be, normal.
If I could think like them,
would I even want to be different?
I guess I'd normal.
