The alarm shakes my bed
The memories pound in my head
Reaching blindly for my phone
Struck by the realization I am alone
Take a shower
Get ready, quick
Temperatures fluctuate
And I always feel sick
Frantically turning the monitor on
Just practice for my greatest long con
Lights are bright inside my mind
Leaving my dreams behind
Clock is ticking
Take my medicine with a drink
Sure it scares me to pretend
But it's important for those around me to think
Do I have time to eat today
What a silly question, I say
When you live in your daydreams
The real world is a nightmare
