lyrics

Always feel like I'm out of time
I could have slept more when I had it
I shouldn't take so much for granted

Out of my mind
I know God's begging me to sleep
But I know what's keeping me up

I turn to my demons against my own senses
And when I go unheard I worry how much you meant it
And all the ways I hurt myself out of resentment
Won't be catching up with me
I know I have enough in me to be more relentless

So Earth to Universe, It's me again
I avoid the worst before being it
But if you're hearing this
Why do I feel like

I'm always out of time
I could have slept more when I had it
I shouldn't take so much for granted

Out of my mind
I know God's begging me to sleep
But I know what's keeping me up

You don't know how much we make up for impediments
You'd never tell without the evidence
But you've had a glance or two and you weren't standing it
And there's a voice in my head, and you're testing how loud it gets
I'll shy away, try to accept, let it rest
But there's more souls out there that need me at my best

So Earth to Universe, are you hearing this?
The crowd is cursed, are you seeing this?
I should be sleeping this off, but night goes by

Now I feel like I'm out of time
I could have slept more when I had it
I shouldn't take so much for granted

Out of my mind
I know God's begging me to sleep
But I know what's keeping me up

I need to keep myself to task
These days, you see
I can’t be carrying a past
They gave to me

Oh, Earth to Universe, they’re everywhere
Trapped in their own worlds
And they’ll never care
No use bursting a bubble I wouldn’t dare

I’m picking up the signs
I could be more than just my habits
I shouldn’t take my life for granted
Out of my mind
I know God’s begging me to sleep
But I know what’s keeping me up

Don't let me go,
I only need to be enough,
Of course I know,
You've granted me all of my best fever-dreams
But you keep me up.
