SLEEP DEBT

Man out of time
I was just an hour behind
Can we turn the clocks all back again
I promise this time I'll be paying attention

That's how it goes
Yesterday is so so long ago
Lost another war against the the sunrise
Over the unrest and under the dark eyes

Countdown from 10
I'll be doing it again
Countdown from 9
I'll be thinking it's a sign
Countdown from 8
I'll be staying up too late

Paying the sleep debt

Went a few rounds
Found out there was nothing to be found
All we are is dancing to what's left
Fell for darkness, fell for the mattress

But oh what a ride
Ends up there are lessons on the outside
Forgetting what an art the night can be
If it's an illusion come lose it with me

Countdown from 10
I'll be doing it again
Countdown from 9
I'll be thinking it's a sign
Countdown from 8
I'll be staying up too late

Paying the sleep debt

Under the chin
I’ve been holding my head up again
Like a little vase that needs arrangement
I’m hungry for something I don’t know how to get

Countdown from 10
I'll be doing it again
Countdown from 9
I'll be thinking it's a sign
Countdown from 8
I'll be staying up too late

Paying the sleep debt
