I wake up in the night
The nightmare comes alive
My heart is beating like a drum
It's only 3 a.m
Oh here I go again
I close my eyes but sleep won't come
It's been like this for too long

I get back up and carry on
One day at a time
No mountains to climb
But sometimes it don't come easy
One day at a time
Or I lose my mind
That's all I can do believe me
The sun comes creepin in
I've had no sleep again
Its been another long, long night

This thing won't go away
Its time to face the day
What can I do to make things right?
Its been like this to be gone
I found the strength to carry on
One day at a time
No mountains to climb
But sometimes it don't come easy
One day at a time
Or I lose my mind
That's all I can do believe me
It's been like this for to long
