I sit around and think the same thoughts
And feel the same things
And relive the same nightmares
Day in, day out
Every new moment
Is a reheated memory
Or a new problem
To eternally hash out
In my convoluted mind
And every waking hour
Is one less hour
I have to sleep my life away
To feel my life melt away
Even just for a moment
Before the stress finds its way
To my subconscious again
And if I try to break the cycle
I know where it leads
A brief time spent in syncopated reverie
Before I get back into rhythm
With this monotanous lull
And feel the same things
And relive the same nightmares
Day in, day out
Every new moment
Is a reheated memory
Or a new problem
To eternally hash out
In my convoluted mind
And every waking hour
Is one less hour
I have to sleep my life away
To feel my life melt away
Even just for a moment
Before the stress finds its way
To my subconscious again
And if I try to break the cycle
I know where it leads
A brief time spent in syncopated reverie
Before I get back into rhythm
With this monotanous lull
