Hey, are you awake?
I wanted to know because
we've been sleeping here, together
and time seems to elude us both so quickly

Are you awake?
I'm wondering what we'll face tomorrow
because today seemed too good to be true
and tonight everything seems stacked against us

If you are then turn around
And we can strategize for our future
and dream without sleeping
because we lose time together once our eyes are closed

If you're asleep
then be blissfully unaware of my worries
and be happy for both of us
because I can't meet you where you are

Hey, are you awake?
sleep until tomorrow when I've calmed my mind
and when I wake, we can talk about everything
but for now, maybe it's best that we talk about nothing
