Just for a second
Try to be someone else
Feel what that person feels

You know you can’t carry on
Not like this
You just can’t continue to be who you are

You’re being judged and observed
You’re being tested and absorbed
They’re already trying to change you

You lost track of time
So wake up before it’s too late
Change yourself
Don’t let them do it for you

How much was it?
Doesn’t matter
It was worth it

You could have done it yourself
You spended money on something you should have done
Now they...

You want to know why I don’t sleep?
Well that’s easy
I’m afraid of what tomorrow is going to be like
So I try to avoid it

Why are you so frightened?
Maybe, because it’s a new day
But with my routine
It’ll just be the same anyways

Wouldn’t you like to wake up?
No, I’d rather wait for the sun
It’s a feeling of control over my time
It’ extremely necessary for me

But aren’t you exhausted?
I get tired from time to time
But I think it’s worth it
In some twisted way

So you want control?
I can’t control others...
