lately i’ve been sleeping

every other night

turn the radio up too loud

but it keeps my mind

quiet

 

if you said a year from now i’d be standing in the cold rain

questioning how i lost sight of all the wonder

maybe then i’ll understand what it means to be human

 

when i feel like throwing it all away

i’m calling out like nothing’s changed

like a half set sun

i thought i’d seen it all

but the truth of it is

i’m back up against the wall

 

my head’s under water

this isn’t just a bad dream

don’t go painting sunsets

before the smoke signals arise

 

when i saw the clouds hanging over the horizon

in the distance i thought i could hide the things unspoken

maybe then i’ll understand what it means to be human

 

when i feel like throwing it all away

i’m calling out like nothing’s changed

like a half set sun

i thought i’d seen it all

but the truth of it is

i’m back up against the wall

 

there’s only so much of this weight that i can hold

hope to see the sun today

but if not, it will be there tomorrow

 

when i feel like throwing it all away

i’m calling out like nothing’s changed

like a half set sun

i thought i’d seen it all

but the truth of it is

i’m back up against the wall

i’m back up against the wall

i’m back up against the wall
