lyrics

My day consumes me, am I losing
All the dreams that chase me down each night?

So take advantage of me
I’ll never know because I’m too far gone
My days are far to long
Is it worth it to even try to get some sleep
When all this meaning is so meaningless to me?

I can’t still be moving, am I human?
Is the sky still navy blue? It always seems so bright…

So take advantage of me
I’ll never know because I’m too far gone
My days are far to long
Is it worth it to even try to get some sleep
When all this meaning is so meaningless to me?

So take advantage of me
I’ll never know because I’m too far gone
My days are far to long
Is it worth it to even try to get some sleep
When all this meaning is so meaningless to me?
