I can't describe the feeling when

I'm in my bed asleep and then
I wake up with a vision blurred
And all my efforts are deterred
To reconstruct this image lost

There're certain things my mind must do
And even though they're very few
The image glistens like a gem

Repairing is not one of them
So I'm awake though in my mind
The image that's so unrefined
Is calling to me from the deep
And tempting me to fall asleep

    Hear me out

    This song is about society's expectations

    Sleep is a metaphor

    To be brief all metaphors are describing societal expectations

    I know y'all are smart enough to figure it out

    In the end society wins

    Long Live Tom. Fuck Trey (just kidding I play guitar).
