When I Wake Up

When I wake up, I feel you beside me
You turn and tell me it’s all OK
I’m at the point of losing all feeling
We go out to dinner and come home the same
When I wake up in cold sweat and sheets
That’s when you turn and say
Is it too much to ask?
Too much to cry?
Too much for anyone, let alone me?
Tell me what’s wrong, but don’t tell me why
Is it too much for anyone, let alone me?
When I wake up and you can’t remind me
The millions of people and all their mistakes
I turn around and it’s four in the morning
We go out to dinner and come home the same
When I wake up in cold sweat and sheets
It’s just like you always said
But nobody wants it to end like that
But it’s alright. It’s alright.
It’s alright.
Is it too much to ask?
Too much to cry?
Too much for anyone, what about me?
Tell me what’s wrong, but don’t tell me why
Is it too much for anyone, let alone me?
Is it too much to ask?
Too much to cry?
Too much for anyone?
What about me?
Tell me what’s wrong
Tell me a lie
Is it too much for anyone, let alone me?

Famous Friends
03:26

All my friends are rich and famous
They deserve it, and I hate it
Some things come so easy to some people, they just fly
All the stars that hang above me look so bright and seem so lovely
Cross your arms and even rising tides will pull you down
But baby, I am kidding no one
I’m just killing time
All my friends are rich and famous
Late night shows and nominations
Thank you for your questions, we won’t take more at this time
But darling, I am getting older
I’m just killing time
Thought that you might notice
Thanks, I’m doing fine

Coulda Tried
02:36
|
|||
|
Forced into forward motion
Waiting for that feeling to subside
Coulda tried, coulda tried
There’s death in your decisions
Every day a certain suicide
Coulda tried, coulda tried
Another day you’re too afraid to start
Tell yourself you’re better where you are
Another moment, fall from fear of flight
You were right.
Last call for recognition
The only thing that’s eatin’ you alive
Could tried, coulda tried
Got all I ever wanted
Now there’s nowhere left for me to hide
Coulda tried, coulda tried
Another day you’re too afraid to start
Tell yourself you’re better where you are
Another moment, fall from fear of flight
You were right.

Last Time
04:12
|

|
Last time I told you that it was the last time
Then time made a fool of me last time
Back at the start again
Everyone makes their mistakes
Last time I took it too easy
And last night I took it too hard
I said I’d be different
I said I would change
But all that I did was give it a new name
How? How could this happen to me?
I won’t let it happen
A round of applause with no hand left to play
How? How could this happen to me?
I want it to happen
A round of applause with no hand left to play
Last time I told you that it was the last time
You tried to get through to me last time
It’s all starting to sound the same
I’ll go wherever you’ll see me
The spotlight, the heart of the sun
I can’t close the distance
I can’t run the race
I want the distraction
I need the escape
How? How could this happen to me?
I won’t let it happen
A round of applause with no hand left to play
How? How could this happen to me?
I want it to happen
A round of applause with no hand left to play

Go For It
03:08

Are you awake?
Is it too late to call?
I call anyway – don't know what about
I keep forgetting the sound of your voice and I don’t think that I can keep playing this tape
I’ll believe whatever you say to me
Don’t you cry, it’s just like this sometimes
Nothing’s wrong and it’s catching up with me
I thought I might see it, but I don’t see it now
When I wake up, that’s when I get the call
It doesn’t add up
It’s too early for this
I can’t believe all the shit that you said to me.
I can’t believe all the shit that you said.
But I would be whatever you want me to
Don’t you cry, it’s just like this sometimes
Nothing’s wrong and it’s catching up with me
I thought I might see it, but I don’t see it now
I thought I might see it, but I don’t see how
I’ll believe whatever you say to me
Don’t you cry, it’s just like this sometimes
Nothing’s wrong and it’s catching up with me
I thought I might see it, but I don’t see it now
I thought I might see it, but I don’t see how
I thought I might see it, but I don’t think I can...

Anyone
04:33
|

|
You've got all the friends you need
And me, I'm only trying to sleep
But you must not need anyone
You must not need anyone
They tell me that it comes in waves
They tell me that I'm doing well
But you must not need anyone
You must not need anyone at all
Do you still remember places we'd been
'Cause me, I don't recall
And it's never cheating for us winners
Me, I won't remember this at all
I want the lights to shine for me
Pointless and magnificent
But you must not need anyone
You must not need anyone
They tell me that it comes with age
They tell me that I'm aging well
But you must not need anyone
You must not need anyone at all
Do you still remember things that we did
'Cause me, I don't recall
And it's never cheating for you, is it?
Me, I won't remember this at all
I won't get to sleep tonight
Won't make it alone
You say it's the tightrope
I say it's the fall
Do you still remember places we'd been
'Cause me, I don't recall
I know that you said it, did you mean it?
"Me, I won't remember you at all."

Done With You
02:34
|

|
I have become the image of somebody else
When they're high on you
You can only let them down
Always playing games they'll never lose
They're almost done with you
I have become the vision of somebody else
When they're high on you
You can only blame yourself
Only playing games you'll never lose
They're almost done with you
Only playing games you'll never lose
They're almost done with you, yeah
They're almost done with you

Laugh Lines
03:58
|

|
I am middling
I am losing steam
Said you'd call me up for the holidays
And I see it now for the comedy
But the laugh lines, they never came
And I tried to hard to reach you
But I don't think that you were ever there
Do you sit around waiting for the peace that never comes?
Do you sit around waiting for the day we're finally done?
I am middling
I am losing steam
Said you'd call me up, but it never came
There's a part of me so apart from me
I've read all the lines, there's nothing to say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But I don't think that you would even care
Do you sit around waiting for the peace that never comes?
Do you sit around waiting for the day we're finally done?
I still see it now
Waiting for the peace that never comes
I still see it now
Waiting for the day we're finally done

Sleep Again
03:17
|
|||
|
I want everyone to love me
But I don't want to work that hard
And I try to talk to Jesus
But he won't return my calls
People always tell me that it's darkest before the dawn
I want everyone to want me
But I know it's not enough
And when I said I would be someone
It's 'cause I really thought I would
People always tell me that it's darkest before the dawn
But for how long?

What could be worse than chorus and verse never speaking for you?
And what could be worse, what you thought you were turning it's back on you?
The thing you thought was yours to lose
You thought that it would stay with you
It followed you around just like a pet
Were all the moments trapped in you?
Agoraphobic, they won't go outside and see their life instead?
What could be worse than calling the hearse and waiting for the morning?
But after it's all said and done, you've got one more coming...
Isn't it wonderful to live?
