I don't wanna sleep
I'm wasting too much time
My dreams are empty
Are yours?
I don't wanna die
Why can't I have more time?
I feel I'm floating on the floor (on the floor)
Not gonna give away my life
Just to be stuck in this divide
I sleep and dream my own demise
I don't want to die
If I should fall asleep
I won't go in too deep
See it through mind's eye
I don't want to die
Don't tell me it's alright
I know it's not
Drowning voices ring true
I'm not given time or even afterthought
I think I'm starting to unglue (to unglue)
Not gonna give away my life
Just to be stuck in this divide
I sleep and dream my own demise
I don't want to die
If I should fall asleep
I won't go in too deep
I see through death's disguise
I don't want to die
Not gonna give away my life
Just to be stuck in this divide
I sleep and dream my own demise
I don't want to die
If I should fall asleep
I won't go in too deep
See it through mind's eye
I don't want to die
