Wake and Awake

Wake, wake, awake, awake
Five
Six
Seven
Eight...
...
  ...
...
   ...
Why are we still awake? ...
...
    ...
  ...
Talking, talking...
I can't understand them
Talking, talking-
I can't understand them
...

...

...

Babbling, babbling...
There's a barrier there
The sound...
Washes over me.
Maybe if I'd spent more time-

...
  ...
    ...
It's a blessing and a curse
Because I can't understand
And because I can't understand
    ...
  ...
...
And I can't sleep


Can't sleep...
  ...
  ...
...
     ...
I can't understand-
And...

            I'm glad

I can't understand-
And...
  I think...

             I'm sad

I'm glad... and sad
...
  ...
...
    ...
And I can't sleep

I just...

And I want to break it down
The barrier

.

Talking

.
But
It's not pretty sometimes

They don't want me to see
And
I believe them

.

Babbling

.
So
I don't want to break it down

What
What use could I even be

Since

.

Talking

.
I don't
I don't even know about
All of these things

The things

And I want to break it down

But
.

Babbling

.
And I just...
              really...
      I can't...
Just-

.
.
.

      awake
...
    ...
  ...
      ...
...

I can't-








Sleep

...
