The clock strikes 12 in the morning,
Trying hard to get into the stream.
But when it does not let you sleep,
you are wide awake in your dream.

What is it that keeps you awake at night?
Have you find your cause to fight?
If not so, oh my dear!
You will live only in fear.

Let this feeling set you free,
Open the lock with this key.
Don't be living just a life,
Make it larger, while you strive.

Don't think it will be easy,
Many more endless nights to see.
But when it does not let you sleep,
There is nothing more meaningful,
and deep.

Storms will come and go,
You have to face it all.
What matters in the end,
That you get up after the fall.

They will eventually weep,
Don't just wait for the slumberday.
When it does not let you sleep,
You have found the right way...
What keeps you awake at night?
