| I gave my things away |
| I called the people that I only see on holidays |
| This next year’s gonna burn a hole in me |
| I spent my weekdays in my car |
| And the weekends drinking hard enough for two |
| I think I’ll settle down one of these days till I catch my breath |
| I feel the weight of the world on my back but I’m not feeling sick to death |
| 'Cause I laid awake in bed and thought of better times |
| I never wanna sleep 'cause I found apathy |
| In laying down and never waking up, never waking up |
| I’ve learned a lot today |
| 'Cause there’s a reason why I’ll never live the easy way |
| I’m trying to be real |
| I wrote down words inside my arm that say |
| I’ll never walk alone 'cause I get tired |
| I know I’ll have my friends in every way |
| So I caught my breath and for the first time I found what I’m looking for |
| 'Cause I laid awake in bed and thought of better times |
| I never wanna sleep 'cause I found apathy |
| In laying down and never waking up, never waking up |
| I laid awake in bed and thought of better times |
| I never wanna sleep 'cause I found apathy |
| In laying down and never waking up, never waking up |
| Yeah I went down, yeah I found a way |
| In the city where my father was born |
| I had a dream I moved out west |
| I finally found out what I wanted to be so I picked up where I left |
| And I waited two more years and covered up my ears |
| I think I’m ready to sing this time |
| I think I’m ready to sing this time |
| I laid awake in bed and thought of better times |
| I never wanna sleep 'cause I found apathy |
| In laying down and never waking up, never waking up |
| I laid awake in bed, thought of better times |
| I never wanna sleep 'cause I found apathy |
| In laying down and never waking up, never waking up |
