I really should be fast asleep
It’s funny, I’m not tired
The night has taken over me
The light of day, expired
There’s a spider crawling up my wall
He doesn’t notice me at all
Perhaps he’s uninspired
By the fact that I’m not tired
My brain is running on caffeine
It really should be in a dream
Is that truly what I desire?
Cause I’m really not that tired
I close my eyes and try to rest
Still, visions dance before me
Why do I even bother?
Now where’s that cup of coffee?
Sweet liquid gold is most required
Oh, did I mention I’m not tired?
