Standing like a sentry to the left of me
It's guarding adventure that's certain to be
Life-threatening, life-threatening
I need a tragedy
To wake me from perpetual dream
The proverbial 'pinch me'
I'm so sick of sleeping
I'm so sick of sleeping
[CHORUS]
And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone (Oh oh oh, oh oh)
It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone)
I think I need a new story
One where I take on the world
The one that I'm living is boring
It's killing you and me and both
The car crash in front of me
Pulls me back from deep and desperate fantasy
Snaps me wide awake to see the horrible scene
What's happening, what's happening?
Is this the tragedy I asked for?
Is this blood on my hands?
A consequence of my own war?
I'm so sick of sleeping
I'm so sick of needing more
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE}
And you watch
Every time
As I give myself to death and the next life [the life]
And I blindly deserve [discern]
The plot line you deserve
[CHORUS]
It's killing you and me and both
It's killing you and me and both
The guard rail is tempting me Standing like a sentry to the left of me It's guarding adventure that's certain to be Life-threatening, life-threatening I need a tragedy To wake me from perpetual dream The proverbial 'pinch me' I'm so sick of sleeping I'm so sick of sleeping [CHORUS] And you wonder why my eyes don't leave my phone (Oh oh oh, oh oh) It's no wonder that you feel like you're alone (alone) I think I need a new story One where I take on the world The one that I'm living is boring It's killing you and me and both The car crash in front of me Pulls me back from deep and desperate fantasy Snaps me wide awake to see the horrible scene What's happening, what's happening? Is this the tragedy I asked for? Is this blood on my hands? A consequence of my own war? I'm so sick of sleeping I'm so sick of needing more [CHORUS] [BRIDGE} And you watch Every time As I give myself to death and the next life [the life] And I blindly deserve [discern] The plot line you deserve [CHORUS] It's killing you and me and both It's killing you and me and both Explain Request ×
