lyrics

Graduating,
Starting a family
apartment living
in the harsh reality of dreaming
I can't sleep
i'm not awake either
i'm an American dreamer

Black mirrors on the backs of our eyelids
who knew when we were kids we weren't meant to get it
politikin love to talk about all men
but what they dreamin'

I can't sleep, i'm not awake either
Cuz I gotta get paid
I gotta get paid
I gotta get paid

We're not alive tonight
we're living suicide
but its alright
its not like I died

I can't sleep
but everybody sure is down to pretend we're living
So this is a shout to the reality warriors.

Seven thousand days a week
and forthy thousand weeks a year
all existence is an echo
i'm not here
i'm not here
i'm not here
i'm not here

I can't sleep, i'm not awake either
cuz I gotta get paid
