Everyday Night Lights

What am I losing so much sleep for?

Is it for the life I was promised?

Or is it to make up for

The love I missed out on?

What am I losing so much sleep for?

To make the world a better place?

But is it for you, or is it for me,

For haven't we made the two to be different?

What am I losing so much sleep for?

Is it so I don't have to sleep

And dream of things of the past,

Only to wake up into a hollow future?

What am I losing so much sleep for?

Is it so I don't have to look

For a place to hide from blinding lights?

A vacation I can't get back from?

What am I losing so much sleep for?

It's because sleep is for those

Who aren't afraid of waking up.
