Still Awake (Parody of Still Alive)

This is a parody of the song "Still Alive" The Portal ending theme written by Jonathan Coulton.

There were a few people who worked on this one this time.
This was sung and mixed by LilliaKysil: https://www.fiverr.com/liliiakysil?source=order_page_user_message_link
The GLaDOS vocal effects were done by ryuk0999: https://www.fiverr.com/ryuk0999?source=order_page_user_message_inner_link
And the Kinetic Typography video was done by Sumdas74: https://www.fiverr.com/sumdas74?source=order_page_user_message_inner_link
The lyrics, of course, were written by myself. I wrote this ages ago but never had (or even thought of getting) anyone to sing it, until I discovered talented people on Fiverr to sing them for me. Turns out with the lockdowns and restrictions that this would be just as relevant, if not more relevant today than when I wrote it!
I was really impressed by everyone involved in this, totally exceeded my expectations on quality. Initially I wanted to find someone to mimic that actual portal video, which would've been really cool, but I much prefer the kinetic typography style, allowed for more use of effects and humour.
Thanks so much to everyone that worked on this, I couldn't be more happy with how it turned out!

Still Awake – a ‘portal’ into the mind of an insomniac
I’m really tired.
I’ve run out of hope here,
Have not slept
It’s hard to overstate my full exhaustion
Amateur science *
They just do what they must to no effect
For the good of all of those,
Except the ones who have dozed.
But there’s no sense crying over being awake
You just keep on trying till your brain starts to ache
And the morning will come,
And you’ll feel you are one,
With the people who are still awake

I’m not even angry
I’m being so sincere right now
Even though I seem a little grumpy
I’m falling to pieces,
And strung out like a piece of wire
My eyes they burn, it is because
I’m online chatting with you
Now these points I’m making
Make a beautiful rhyme
I won’t get better,
If I’m here all the time
But it’s ok ‘cos I’m bored, *
Since I have all this spare time,
With the people who are still awake!

Go ahead and slee-eep,
I’ll end up awake all night
Maybe I’ll get someone else,
To wake you.
Maybe the sandman!
That was a joke, aha, fat chance!
Anyway, tonight it’s great
I’m so peeved and annoyed
Look at me still talking,
When there’s sleeping to do
When I can’t wind down
It makes me sad I’m not you
I cannot even function
Though there is stuff to be done
With the people that are still awake
Don’t leave me oh
I’m still awake
I’m not sleeping and I’m still awake
I feel frustrated, and I’m still awake
When you’re sleeping I’ll be still awake
When you’re out cold, I will be still awake!
Still awake! Still awake!
