lyrics

Back at the habit again
No time to come down
If our fathers are our models for god then it's the devil for me
So when I finally quit I couldn't get it to stick
I'd always wake up
To four white walls
Shackled by the sheets of my bed
Just thinking
Maybe all of this is just a real bad dream
Like I'd awake surprised to find this whole time I'd been sleeping
Seeking that sweet relief
Well maybe all of this is just a real bad dream
If only we could wake ourselves if only we
Could wake up
Wake up
She said she'd been treading water too long
She's bout to go down
Well daddy never taught her how to swim
She ate a bottle of pills cause she don't like how she feels
And now she...
Wakes up
To four white walls
Firmly strapped to her bed
Just thinking
Maybe all of this is just a real bad dream
Like she'd awake surprised to find this whole time she'd been sleeping
Right next to me
Well maybe all of this is just a real bad dream
If only we could wake ourselves if only we
Could wake up
Wake up
I see the people and I see the trees
And I see good men going down to their knees
Praying for rest and relief they don't seem to recieve
Well I seem to see plenty of everything
Oh and I see the lovers who will never meet
Watching from windows
Scared to death of the streets
Now they say that they know where you go when you're gone
And they sell you a line tied to a hook in your heart
But you feel this sinking feeling in your chest
That maybe all of this is just a real real bad dream
If I could just wake up please
It's about trust and it's about time
And it's about lust and it's about lies
And it's about you and it's about I
And it's about time that we
Wake up
