awake with your eyes closed
just enough to lie
flat on your back and you ask
cuz you don't know why
was it yesterday or something from a dream?
is it fantasy or something in between?
but the day won't start
'til you pull away the blinds
and the night won't end
if you're scared of what you'll find
so stop
cuz you're rolling off
the wrong side of your bed
then go
when you're through
with all the voices in your head
and wake up singing
(silly wailing)
live away your life away
singing
(more silly wailing)
well you're shattered
from the inside out
but you flaunt your broken duct taped heart
is it easy to laugh
with your eyes full of stars
and your mind full of doubt?
oh stop
and take a breath
and let it all sink in
then go
cuz the timing's right
if you just know when to sing
so sing it now
etc.
