I Was Up So Late Now It's Not Possible To Concentrate

I was up so late Now I cant Hold my eyes open or concentrate I really can't speculate What kept me up so late What possessed me To be so careless and free How this all messes with my mind That everything I do feels like I am lagging behind Oh how I wish I could rewind Instead, I just want to fall out and unwind Because I was up so late Now it's not possible to concentrate It's just crazy how no sleep makes me feel Like my brain is out to lunch And everything is a big deal One thing is for sure I got no business behind a wheel Because I can hardly peel my eyelids open To see what is in front of me All I know is they are really sloping And all I want to do is more moping Just hoping that I can make something out of this day All I can say when we want To stay up late so we can play It cost so much more than just To next day in such a big way So if I can sway you from wasting your next day Because you want to stay up to play It's way easier to just right off and throw away Because you were up so late Now it's not possible to concentrate

Ya, I think we are all guilty of this happening to us it seemed appropriate to write about because It is relatable thanks for the love you have shown I'm humbled, Jack.
