Sleeping Too Much
Dreams Amidst Stillness
Lyrics
Sleeping too much and waking up late
Feeling lethargic from sleeping excessively and waking up late
Having no job to wake to today
Being unemployed and having no job obligations for the day
Living your life counting down to a day
Living life with anticipation for a future day
Well yeah it can be fun but it is something to hate
Acknowledging that the lifestyle can be enjoyable but is also something to dislike
People around you are always at work
Surrounded by people who are constantly working
Nobody has the simple time to stop and to talk
No one has the time to pause and engage in conversation
Today they build these big big rocks
Observing the construction of significant structures today
Tomorrow they will build with it their own sidewalks
Expecting that these structures will be used for personal purposes in the future
For me right now it ain't too easy
Expressing personal challenges and difficulties at the moment
Knowing that I'm not too busy
Awareness of not being occupied with many tasks
In studying degrees so I can hit the road
Pursuing education with the goal of hitting the road in the future
While I'm building dreams and I'm writing songs
Actively involved in building dreams and writing songs
For me right now it ain't too easy
Reiteration of personal challenges and difficulties
Knowing that I'm not to busy
Acknowledging the lack of busyness in the current situation
In studying degrees so I can hit the road
Continuing education for future plans of hitting the road
While I'm building dreams and I'm writing songs
Engaged in the process of building dreams and writing songs
For how long can you be so silent?
Raising a question about the duration of remaining silent or inactive
Waking up to no one who sleeps beside you
Waking up without a companion
Your older siblings has left your home
Noting the absence of older siblings from the home
And now you're eating breakfast all alone
Eating breakfast alone as a result of family changes
Now that you know that being lonely is a suffer
Realizing the suffering that comes with loneliness
Maybe you'll find time to call your grandmother
Suggesting a potential action to alleviate loneliness by calling a grandmother
Cause the good news is that you'll be out of it soon
Anticipating a positive change in the near future
But the bad news is that she got used to the blues
Recognizing that someone has become accustomed to feeling down
For me right now it ain't too easy
Reiteration of personal challenges and difficulties
Knowing that I'm not too busy
Acknowledging the lack of busyness in the current situation
In studying degrees so I can hit the road
Continuing education for future plans of hitting the road
While I'm building dreams and I'm writing songs
Engaged in the process of building dreams and writing songs
For me right now it ain't too easy
Reiteration of personal challenges and difficulties
Knowing that I'm not to busy
Acknowledging the lack of busyness in the current situation
In studying degrees so I can hit the road
Continuing education for future plans of hitting the road
While I'm building dreams and I'm writing songs
Engaged in the process of building dreams and writing songs
