Sleep Lyrics by Recurrence

The Exit

2023

Wake up!

It is now you wake up it’s time to make you see
You are the only thing that’s keeping you from living
Sitting back wasting the life that you are given
Is it really all worth it to come up with excuses
Is this ok with you living in such a fashion
In which your only drive is to crave a distraction
From everything around you you fucking coward
It is time to grow up and face your fears now

Fuck you are so useless always waiting for the day
For the chance to make it happen it is your one and only way
To embrace the cycle you’ve made and any day now
You will start to cling to fiction with no hope for a way out
And while you’re doing this you’re becoming just like them
It is horrible to witness the fading of a friend
You’re watching and you’re waiting for something better
Don’t try to fight the feeling to make an effort

Better wake up tonight take it upon yourself
Better wake up tonight people lie awake forever
Better wake up tonight don’t bury it deep inside
Better wake up or you’ll be living a lie and never
Better wake up tonight take it upon yourself
Better wake up tonight people lie awake forever
Better wake up tonight if you want to survive
Better wake up or you’ll be living a lie and never
Sleep

Get out of my life you only hold me back
I just want you gone so I can finally
Sleep is what I want a rest from all the bull
Shit that’s in this world that you just thrive on
Can’t we make a deal No I don’t stop to feel
Regret for treating you with such a realness
I hope that you never find an exit to your lie
Please just step aside so I can get some sleep

Better wake up tonight take it upon yourself
Better wake up tonight people lie awake forever
Better wake up tonight don’t bury it deep inside
Better wake up or you’ll be living a lie and never
Better wake up tonight take it upon yourself
Better wake up tonight people lie awake forever
Better wake up tonight if you want to survive
Better wake up or you’ll be living a lie and never
Sleep!

No, we are not equal I am superior
I have learned to overcome all the challenges I’ve faced
How, can you compare us you are so very wrong
There is no need to convince you that you must find yourself
All alone and on your own the experience will guide you
It is tiresome to watch it the failing of a life
You’re just an endless cycle of instability and
You will get what you deserve absolutely nothing!

Better wake up tonight take it upon yourself
Better wake up tonight people lie awake forever
Better wake up tonight don’t bury it deep inside
Better wake up or you’ll be living a lie and never
Better to sever the ties, the lives, and the dreams that they hide
Better wake up or you’ll be living a lie and never
Don’t just pretend that it’s fine or it will all crumble in time
Better wake up, because there’s nothing but sleep to lose!

Problems do not run no they don’t even hide
They are not afraid of what you won’t do
You will not confront the demons in your world
I know that you are a drain on human
Life is not a game but if it were you’re losing
All you’ve never learned has been a waste of
Time to get a clue for what you never knew
Even when you die you’ll never get to sleep
Sleep!
