There's a point you pass,
It's when you know that no matter how hard you try,
You're not going to sleep.
No matter how much you want to,
You've passed that point,
That point of no return.
You're no longer tired or exhausted,
You're just hyper.
Then the hyperness turns into boredom and restlessness.
As the hours drag on and on
And you stay up later and later,
You hit the emotional breakdown.
You hit the point where everything
Goes from hilariously funny
To tragically sad.
The final point comes
When you everything that comes out of your mouth,
Is unfiltered!
Raw emotion,
Words tumbling over each other,
Not making sense.
And then all of a sudden,
You don't know how it happens,
But out of nowhere,
You're lying down somewhere,
Waking up from 5 hours of sleep.

There's a point you pass,
It's when you know that no matter how hard you try,
You're not going to sleep.
No matter how much you want to,
You've passed that point,
That point of no return.
You're no longer tired or exhausted,
You're just hyper.
Then the hyperness turns into boredom and restlessness.
As the hours drag on and on
And you stay up later and later,
You hit the emotional breakdown.
You hit the point where everything
Goes from hilariously funny
To tragically sad.
The final point comes
When you everything that comes out of your mouth,
Is unfiltered!
Raw emotion,
Words tumbling over each other,
Not making sense.
And then all of a sudden,
You don't know how it happens,
But out of nowhere,
You're lying down somewhere,
Waking up from 5 hours of sleep.
