While I'm Awake

I think I hear my time a-calling Between us it seems overdue My car's a-creaking and a-stalling It needs some new headlamps soon Each time I think I'll start living Instead it's just another bill I hope that round the next corner I won't just find one more hill My emotional capacity takes a hit If I wasn't so committed, then I think I'd split The world keeps spinning I can't catch a break Nothing ever goes to plan while I'm awake This year was faster in the falling Now every day's another wreck Who knew that when life was so boring Was more than I could expect? You've turned me into a cliché: A millennial not allowed a debt Once I feared a crushing mortgage Now I just take what I get My emotional capacity takes a hit If I wasn't so committed, then I think I'd split The world keeps spinning I can't catch a break Nothing ever goes to plan while I'm awake My emotional capacity takes a hit If I wasn't so committed, then I think I'd split The world keeps spinning I can't catch a break Nothing ever goes to plan while I'm awake
