The Bad One (lyrics)

[Rewritten from an older song into something a bit more paranoia driven; written from fever dreams]

I wake
I wait in a pool of sweat
I can't sleep
(or am I in a dream?)
I don't recognize your face
I can't read what the sign said.
What did the sign say?

You think I'm no sucker
You think I know what I want
I don't find the comfort
in asking you for help

Awake for miles, got a few more hours
Not sure of nothing but the moon
and that's too far
And every star's a satellite

What do I do when I'm
alone and you're not watching?
Lay down, I break my throne
but still I won't take off the crown

Awake for miles, got a few more hours
Not sure of nothing but the moon
but that's too far
And every star's a satellite
