AFLOAT
Staying afloat, not really giving a shit how
Staring at my ceiling waiting for the abyss now
I'm not an insomniac but I just can't sleep
And if I do, I have no dreams
Cuz I missed REM by about 3 hours
I'm staring at the ceiling at 3am
Thinking about the things that could've been
Because I'm staying afloat, just for now
I should've been a better friend
At least I never left you
Running through my head are all the things that I do
Are they worth it
I don't know
Drift with me to a planet of ice and snow
Staying afloat is all I know
I just can't seem to get to sleep, though
It's all moving quick, It's all moving fast
Everything now's so hard to grasp
Sometimes I watch my life just passing me by
I'm only seventeen but any day I could die
I'm thinking I can get by the whole week
Just gotta stay awake on caffeine
Got assignments due the next morning
A mysterious black fog is forming
Keeping me from closing my eyes
I'll stay awake till the sun will arise
I'm staring at the ceiling at 3am
Thinking about the things that could've been
Because I'm staying afloat but not for long
Long day
Drift away
Put on my favourite songs
After a week of dismay
Stressed out
Wanna shout
But I lack any energy do that
I wish I could drift away
But these thoughts in my head are leading me astray
There's gotta be a reason why my head hurts all day
Wanna go to sleep wanna go to bed
But I just can't and I end up grasping my head
Sometimes I look down and I envy the dead
But then I look up, not down instead
I'm trying to go to sleep while questioning mortality
Trying to close my eyes while thinking about morality of
Certain decisions
I've made in the past
Staring at my ceiling waiting for the abyss now
I'm not an insomniac but I just can't sleep
And if I do, I have no dreams
Cuz I missed REM by about 3 hours
I'm staring at the ceiling at 3am
Thinking about the things that could've been
Because I'm staying afloat, just for now
I should've been a better friend
At least I never left you
Running through my head are all the things that I do
Are they worth it
I don't know
Drift with me to a planet of ice and snow
Staying afloat is all I know
I just can't seem to get to sleep, though
It's all moving quick, It's all moving fast
Everything now's so hard to grasp
Sometimes I watch my life just passing me by
I'm only seventeen but any day I could die
I'm thinking I can get by the whole week
Just gotta stay awake on caffeine
Got assignments due the next morning
A mysterious black fog is forming
Keeping me from closing my eyes
I'll stay awake till the sun will arise
I'm staring at the ceiling at 3am
Thinking about the things that could've been
Because I'm staying afloat but not for long
Long day
Drift away
Put on my favourite songs
After a week of dismay
Stressed out
Wanna shout
But I lack any energy do that
I wish I could drift away
But these thoughts in my head are leading me astray
There's gotta be a reason why my head hurts all day
Wanna go to sleep wanna go to bed
But I just can't and I end up grasping my head
Sometimes I look down and I envy the dead
But then I look up, not down instead
I'm trying to go to sleep while questioning mortality
Trying to close my eyes while thinking about morality of
Certain decisions
I've made in the past
