Wake Up |
'Cause we’ve been driving so long |
I can’t remember how we got here |
Or how we survived so long |
Out trying to run from our pride |
'Till you set fire to my atmosphere |
And I remember how I spent the twenty-third |
Feeling six feet under |
When I’m thirty-thousand feet in the air |
Chasing that sundown |
So far east I’m westbound |
Feeling like the edge of this world is near |
But you’ll feel better when you wake up |
Swear to god I’ll make up |
Everything and more when I get back someday |
This is more than just a phase, love |
Shooting stars all break up |
And even though it seems like half the world away |
Things will be better in America |
Heard the streets are gold there |
Maybe I could fly you out this place someday |
Chasing dreams like I’m on Novocaine |
Screaming through your airwaves |
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say |
Stay, you’re not gonna leave me |
This place is right where you need to be |
And why your words gotta mean so much to them |
And they mean nothing to me? |
So stay, you’re not what you’re hearing |
'Cause I’ve been watching you changing |
And who said you’re one in a million, anyway? |
'Cause you see only what you want to |
Your tunnel vision owns you |
And you can’t see what’s wrong |
When you keep sleeping through the PM |
Eyes wide open when you’re dreaming |
You’re sleepwalking, just keep talking |
Maybe you can talk your way out of this deep end |
No B-plan in your system |
Just tell me what you’re thinking |
I’m scared that you might fall |
But you’re not |
But you’re not |
And you’ll feel better when you wake up |
Taking off your makeup |
Sun always seems to wash our fears away |
And it’s always shining somewhere |
I just gotta get there |
And even though it seems like half the world away |
Things are better in America |
Heard the streets are gold there |
Maybe I could fly you out this place someday |
Chasing dreams like I’m on Novocaine |
Screaming through your airwaves |
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say |
Stay, you’re not gonna leave me |
This place is right where you need to be |
And why your words gotta mean so much to them |
And they mean nothing to me? |
So stay, you’re not what you’re hearing |
'Cause I’ve been watching you changing |
And who said you’re one in a million? |
You’re so much better than that |
You’re so much better than that |
You’re so much better than that |
Stay, you’re not what you’re hearing |
'Cause I’ve been watching you changing |
And who said you’re one in a million anyway? |
And you’ll feel better when you wake up |
Swear to God, I’ll make up |
Everything and more when I get back someday |
Chasing dreams like I’m on Novocaine |
Screaming through your airwaves |
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say: |
«You're so much better than that» |
