Up All Night

(Pamela Belitch)

On the pain and unrest that comes of procrastinating on actualizing life goals, and motivation for doing the opposite

VERSE 1
Atrophy, please be my mistress tonight.
There’re ‘bout a million other things I could be doing with my
Time. But baby, I’d rather be with you.
It's no coincidence that every time I close my eyes,
I'm only dreaming of you 
Waking me up to
Another sleepless night.
And I'm not sure what you're doing to me.
But babe, you sure know how to do it right.
 
CHORUS
Is it time, is it time yet?
Time now to wake up?
Are we tired, or just tired of still always giving up?
Don't let the comfort of slumber
Keep you under
For too long, till too late.
Get up. Get out. Go make
Something happen
Today.
 
VERSE 2
Give me five more minutes longer.
Nothing to lose when I hit snooze--Well, I could be wrong. Or,
I could just sleep in. Ooh, baby, hit it again.
Ain’t it funny how things seem to just pass you by
While you're sleeping on your 
Laurels? What for?
Morals, don't you have some?
Or are you just numb? Do you know what it means
To commit, or do you just live life in between?

CHORUS 
 
BBRIDGE
Are you just a fake? Can you stand
To look yourself in the mirror? Do you block out the plans
You've made in retrograde? Do you wish you wouldn't?
