[Chorus]
I lie awake in bed
With my mind full of thoughts
The clock is ticking time away slowly
Sleepless nights
And the sun is slowly rising
My eyes already closed
Thinking about how I'll be
Away from my dreams when I'm asleep
But I'm having sleepless nights
[Verse 1]
Staring into the darkness
With an endless dream
No reason to close my eyes anymore
For I can find my future in my phantasies
And daydreams and I can see them
Boundless and full of possibilities it seems
Like living a life in anarchy
I've seen them, everything can change into gold, so I'd rather do it soon
My philosophy is to roll up my sleeves
But I don't see myself as one
To do something and I have to go outside clenching my jaw
So I'm awake, dreaming all night
A healthy thrill about what's coming
Tomorrow we'll rise happily again
I see the sun rising
[Chorus]
I lie awake in bed
With my mind full of thoughts
The clock is ticking time away slowly
Sleepless nights
And the sun is slowly rising
My eyes already closed
Thinking about how I'll be
Away from my dreams when I'm asleep
But I'm having sleepless nights
[Verse 2]
Yeah and I want [to go] back to the future
The floor burned the place in front of me
I'm driving at night and the city's snoring already
Stern faces in a city full of villains
I'm on my own and my vision is clear
Sweating in bed and I'd rather go outside
My mind has created a masterplan
And I'm dancing with the devil, shows how deep I'm into it
Eyes are following me as if I'm in a movie
Fingers itchy as soon as I take a break
Ready for action and those adrenaline kicks
Addictive, like I'm on heroin
The clock is ticking time away slowly
Time to sleep
And yet I keep going, 'cause the sun is rising
Chased by my future
Craving for tomorrow and that's why
[Chorus]
I lie awake in bed
With my mind full of thoughts
The clock is ticking time away slowly
Sleepless nights
And the sun is slowly rising
My eyes already closed
Thinking about how I'll be
Away from my dreams when I'm asleep
But I'm having sleepless nights
[Bridge]
Sleepless nights
Lie alone in bed
Only thinking about tomorrow
My thoughts are driving me crazy
My brain is living in the future
My body in the present
Staring at the skies
So that dreams stay close
The sun is rising
The stars in the sky are our stage set
Planning ahead for tomorrow, still pretending
About what I can become, what I can become
The sun is rising
The stars in the sky are our stage set
Planning ahead for tomorrow, still pretending
About what I can become, what I can become
[Chorus]
I lie awake in bed
With my mind full of thoughts
The clock is ticking time away slowly
Sleepless nights
And the sun is slowly rising
My eyes already closed
Thinking about how I'll be
Away from my dreams when I'm asleep
But I'm having sleepless nights
