Don'T Wanna Be
Don't wanna be a dreamer's dream
When I'm wide awake with nothing to do
It's oh-god-thirty AM and the lights are bright
It's Friday night and I'm ready to fight
I'm not a maniac I'm an insomniac
Paranoia fills my every thought when I try to sleep
So I'm laying with eyes wide open
Hoping the scotch tape will hold
Don't wanna be lost in the hysteria
Of a psychotic dream
Haunted by my own imagination
Change the station, change the station
I'm not crazy I'm just lazy
And when the sun finally rises
I'll be laying with eyes closed shut
Hoping I'll wake up sometime soon
