Monday morning; 7 am.
The usual competition begins again,
People start to drifting along the streets,
Some are lost in the traffic jam.
Yes, it’s a new day with a lot of hopes,
And we already have enough to enjoy,
All day we’ve been working like the dogs,
We are exhausted while we’re going back to home.
And we think what we have got today,
Then we see we only flutter in vain, Sleep In Pain...
It’s time to Sleep In Pain,
It’s time to Sleep In Pain, Oh Yeah!
The Friday night comes finally,
It’s just an end of a hard working week,
Some are running to the clubs in the city,
Some are stuck on the television screen.
And we think what we have got today,
Then we see we only flutter in vain, Sleep In Pain...
It’s time to Sleep In Pain,
It’s time to Sleep In Pain, Oh Yeah!
Yeah, I feel I’m losing my personality,
Now I’m just a man who they want me to be.
Maybe one day we will realise it,
But I’m afraid it will be too late.
And we think what we have got today,
Then we see we only flutter in vain, Sleep In Pain...
It’s time to Sleep In Pain,
It’s time to Sleep In Pain, Oh Yeah!
It’s time to Sleep In Pain,
It’s time to Sleep In Pain,
It’s time to Sleep In Pain...
