Staying Up lyrics

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

Then, there's a light

And I can see why

Im 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
