lyrics

Soon as I get home
Distant and alone
No one cares about the state I’m in
Scrolling through my phone
Triggered undertones
Pricks me like a poison of a pin
I can tell it’s 3 AM again.

Tinkering with toys
Silent through the noise
Hiding to protect my innocence
Still the urges come
Slavery to some
Dragging through my head until it ends
Not before it’s 3 AM again.

Why am I awake?
Why am I awake?

Nightmares seem to be
Somewhere in between
what we call is real and what’s a dream
Things of what I’ve done
Things of what’s to come
Things that keep me wide awake in bed
Sure enough it’s 3 AM again.

Why am I awake?
(Wouldn’t you like to know?)
(Wouldn’t you like to know?)
Why am I awake?
(Wouldn’t you like to know?)
(Wouldn’t you like to know?)
Why am I awake?
(Wouldn’t you like to know?)
(Wouldn’t you like to know?)

Why am I awake?
