I know you never wanted a life here
when you were singing that's as good as it gets
everyone was trying to hold your hand
and you were pulling them inside of the mess
low where I was trying to find you
in boxes meant for me to be closed
I learned that it's hard to make things right but it's still harder to let things go
But wasn't I beginning to love you
when I was putting all your pictures away
when everything was starting to quiet down
I started hearing everything I say
But in my dreams of home
we're still orphans there
inside our rooms alone
we're still orphans there
Can you watch t.v. while I fall asleep please?
I'm awake I'm awake keep the dark away from me
In the dark where I saw you in the ceiling
in the bed where I saw me in the wall
my mind inside the dark would take me far away
if you were there I was too scared to call
But there was where I woke up excited
under the colors of a wondrous age
like I was running underneath the parachute
but once that starts it starts to go away
Why can't I sleep?
