Sleep tonight
Close your eyes and dream things
Dream to make up for the way
You keep diluting life when you’re awake
The mixture was so strong,
I think it had just the right taste
I should have known
It wasn’t going to stay that way.
So bite your nails, yeah let the whole world your nervous
Maybe if they know it hurts you, you didn’t do it on purpose
Sing with all you have, everything
Maybe one-day you’ll find a better way
To get rid of the sting
But for now just do something,
Move ahead, don’t stay stuck
In this moment, or inside your head
Because there’s so much more than this,
Ahead.
