Sleep It Off
Embracing Freedom: A Journey of Self-Realization
Lyrics

You say that everyday

We need some time apart

The way we thought it was (I wanna wake up)

-Enchained

Am I another one you cast out in the dark
Pondering feelings of rejection, distance, and self-worth, questioning one's value in the relationship.

-Am I expandable, a waste of time
-Am I a bed of nails that keeps you up at night
