laying in bed quietly breathing
your eyes are open wide, what's this static you're receiving? 

Your thoughts are tuning in and out
they're switching channels and swirling about

All at once, your body goes  numb
your fingers are curled around your thumb

You close your eyes tight and feel drops down your chin

Your laying here wondering, "how did all this begin?"

Inhaling sharper than you usually do
You're realizing you're not the girl who once flew

Over treetops and mountains and waterfalls below
This is your last chance, you needed to know

Take some time away from the world and the stress
you still worry about your hair, your face and your dress

There are too many things filling your archive
Hallow dreams are the only thing keeping you alive
