Staying Up

No food to eat,

All the money's been wasted

From last week

I can't even leave

So I sleep in the basement

Making up rap beats

Hot cup of tea

It's four o'clock

In the middle of the night

And I can't sleep

It's all on the peak

So bad I can taste it

While it eats me

How can I sleep

If I don't have dreams

I just have nightmares

How can it be

I still believe

Something is out there

Some part of me

Feels a little bit naked and empty

I'm stuck underneath

A few dirty old blankets

To comfort me

How can I sleep

If I don't have dreams

I just have nightmares

How can it be

I still believe

Something is out there

How can I sleep

If I don't have dreams

I just have nightmares

How can it be

I still believe

Something is out there

And there's a light

And I can see why I'm still alive

Mommy won't lie, cause if she did

I would have died

And all the time I sit and try

You think I'd be down

Every night, I'm sick and whine

I'm staying up this time

How can I sleep

If I don't have dreams

I just have nightmares

How can it be

I still believe

Something is out there

How can I sleep

If I don't not havedrams

I just have nightmares

How can it be

I still believe

Something is out there
