Staring at the wall because you know it understands And boy you wonder about everything that could have been It s getting later all the time but you re still wide awake And boy you wonder, if you ll ever sleep again Hey, hey, gotta stay awake Don t let it slip away Don t think that they re not waiting Hey, hey, gotta stay awake As your mind is peeled away But they still seem to find you anyway Sift your hands through broken glass Through your shattered crystal ball and boy you wonder If you ll ever see again Cause every time you close your eyes You know they re right behind you and you wonder If you ll ever live again Don t make a sound cause they re living all around With their shiny eyes and their shiny minds And they re living everywhere Watching every move I make Gotta stay awake
