Sleep is needed to survive Yet when I don't sleep When I can't shut my eyes I keep going Step by step Thought by thought Blink by blink Still awake Eyes wide open Alive No tiredness By that point Well, sleep is not an option It may be needed, But it is not going to happen So, I stay awake While the rest of the world is asleep I am awake And I feel alive

I Stay Awake
Sleep is needed to survive Yet when I don't sleep When I can't shut my eyes I keep going Step by step Thought by thought Blink by blink Still awake Eyes wide open Alive No tiredness By that point Well, sleep is not an option It may be needed, But it is not going to happen So, I stay awake While the rest of the world is asleep I am awake And I feel alive
