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've died

All the time I sit and try, you think I'd be down

Every night, I'm sick and why?

Oh, 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 have dreams?

I just have nightmares

How can it be?

I still believe something is out there

(Something is out there)
