Lyrics
Why do you sleep so much?

You got 10 hours? I’m fine with only 6!

Why do you need a nap everyday?

Are you just gonna stay in bed all day?

You’re too young to be tired, you should have more energy.

Leave me alone

You don’t really know me

Get off my case

Can you just let me be

You think I’m just being lazy

But you can't see inside my head

You don’t know my reality

Laziness has nothing to do with it

It’s my struggles and demons

It’s the way that I’m feeling

The sadness and loneliness

The feelings of worthlessness

That leave me feeling tired

Oh

So now you see

What I’m trying to say

I'll feel the same

tomorrow as today

You think I’m just being lazy

But you can't see inside my head

You don’t know my reality

Laziness has nothing to do with it

It’s my struggles and demons

It’s the way that I’m feeling

The sadness and loneliness

The feelings of worthlessness

That leave me feeling tired

Oh

If sleeping is the only thing that heals me

Then you better believe I’ll be sleeping

Because I need relief

From this misery
