Sleep Training

There was a time when I lived all by myself And I could sleep 'til noon, make music all night The house was dark and quiet, empty and cold But I never got older No, I never got older I was free and helpless, lost in my craft I didn't need caffeine to keep me on track I didn't need routine or savings accounts But I never looked down then No I never looked down then I traded all those freedoms For the chance just to feel needed The cost of the sensation Is sleep deprivation My eyes are old 10,000 years The light is screaming Behind my ears My stomach sways My memory fades There is no me If I don't get some sleep I try to tell myself it's only a phase And those are cracks of wisdom folding my face And just because I feel sick most of the time Doesn't mean that I'm dying Doesn't mean that I'm dying I tried just sleeping with my headphones on... but My mind is screaming over every song... What kind of remedy will knock me out? I was never a pill boy but I fux with them now, ya'll I've put miles on this body Just trying to blow up this hobby The price of my ambition Is sleep deprivation My eyes are old 10,000 years The light is screaming Behind my ears My stomach sways My memory fades There is no me If I don't get some sleep (I'm getting zombied) I'm on my feet still (I'm getting zombied) But I look like roadkill (I'm getting zombied) I'm a walking migraine (I'm getting zombied) Eternal back pain, come on!
