On my bed
On a Tuesday
Heart heavy
And mind crazy
Only since I am trying to fit in
3 am bedtime stories
My eyes not baggy
Sleep has hated me
Yet no one can understand
Running I do
Towards the sunset
Watch it and watch time fade
As darkness covers me
And throws me into very cage
That almost killed me
They hope I will do it all for them
Stand in for them as they sleep
Pretending to care
But leave me sleep with my eyes open

On my bed
On a Tuesday
Heart heavy
And mind crazy
Only since I am trying to fit in
3 am bedtime stories
My eyes not baggy
Sleep has hated me
Yet no one can understand
Running I do
Towards the sunset
Watch it and watch time fade
As darkness covers me
And throws me into very cage
That almost killed me
They hope I will do it all for them
Stand in for them as they sleep
Pretending to care
But leave me sleep with my eyes open
