Staying Up

No food to eat
All the money′s been wasted from last week
I can’t even leave
So I sleep in the basement, making up rap beats
Hot cup of tea
It′s four o’clock in the middle of the night
And I can’t sleep
It′s all on the peak
So bad I can taste it while it eats me

How can I sleep if I don′t have dreams?
I just have nightmares
How can it be?
I still believe something is out there

Some part of me feels a little bit naked and empty
I’m stuck underneath a few dirty old blankets to comfort me

How can I sleep if I don′t have dreams?
I just have nightmares
How can it be?
I still believe something is out there

How can I sleep if I don’t have dreams?
I just have nightmares
How can it be?
I still believe something is out there

And there′s a light
And I can see why I’m still alive
Mommy won′t lie
‘Cause if she did, I would’ve died
All the time I sit and try, you think I′d be down
Every night, I′m sick and why?
Oh, I’m staying up this time

How can I sleep if I don′t have dreams?
I just have nightmares
How can it be?
I still believe something is out there
How can I sleep if I don’t have dreams?
I just have nightmares
How can it be?
I still believe something is out there
(Something is out there)
