Staying Up Lyrics
The Neighbourhood
Lyrics
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.
