Stay Awake Lyrics - Settle Down - Julia Nunes

It's like I don't have the patience, 

Or the will power to separate myself 

From this inundating era I've been dealt 

And all across the nation 

Pixelated screens light up the night 

Of insomniacs and night owls alike 

But we can turn off the lights 

The sun's coming up 

No dreams tonight to interrupt 

Turn off the alarm before it sounds 

And get out of bed without putting your head down 

I've been closing my eyes real tight 

But the space between my lids betrays the light 

So I'm up again, I lost the will to fight 

The scrolling information 

Pulls me in and holds me in a trance 

Link to link, no I don't stand a chance 

And we can turn off the lights 

The sun's coming up 

No dreams tonight to interrupt 

Turn off the alarm before it sounds 

And get out of bed without putting your head down 

Stay awake with me 

In the darkness you will see 

What I've known all along, all along 

Baby when you're sleeping 

I wonder if you see me in your dreams 

Do you know exactly what it means 

Maybe we are falling 

And when I hit the ground I disappear 

But you open up your eyes and I'm still here 

And we can turn off the lights 

The sun's coming up 

No dreams tonight to interrupt 

Turn off the alarm before it sounds 

Get out of bed without putting your head down 

Down, down, down
