Overslept

As the light descends, I feel it
through wood-paned blinds
shadows make a fool of me
don't wake, don't wake
I don't want to have to think about you
don't wake, don't wake
I don't ever want to feel again
don't wake, don't wake.

As the night ascends, I feel it
stain my tear soaked sheets
that still hold your scent
don't wake, don't wake
I don't want to have to know about you
don't wake, don't wake
I don't ever want to try again
don't wake, don't wake.

I have no time to overthink
because all I do is oversleep.
How am I still so tired?

As my life transcends, I feel it
become a memory
of what used to be
won't make, won't make
any effort to forget about you
won't make, won't make
me ever feel alive again
won't make, won't make it out of here.
