lyrics

Think i'm gonna be all right
got a blanket and a night light
I might fall asleep soon
forbidden sleep in the afternoon

well I hope I don't wake up
for at least a little while

but really i'll be fine I can sort myself out
I think of all the things that crawl in my mouth

I don't got all that much to lose
I had a gold flaked attitude
growing faint slowly over time
I guess all things lose their shine

well I hope I don't wake up
for at least a little while

but really I am fine, I can sort myself out
i'll find salvation through sleeping on the couch
i've got sand in my eyes and sand in my mouth
and it only goes away when i'm talking to myself
so i'll waste this whole day
if that's whats gonna help
i'll tell myself anything
if thats whats gonna help
i'll wake up one day having figured it all out
but it only goes away when i'm talking to myself saying

i've got nothing to prove to you
no I don't have a bad attitude
your bullshit is reflecting off of me
and back on to you x2

but really I am fine, I'll sort myself out
I'll find salvation through sleeping on the couch
i've got sand in my eyes and sand in my mouth
it only goes away when i'm talking to myself
saying

i've got nothing to prove to you
no I don't have a bad attitude
your bullshit is reflecting off of me
and back on to you x2
