Lyrics
Saw the world turning in my sheets, and once again, I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street, look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go
Hello, hello, there is no place I cannot go
My mind is muddy, but my heart is heavy, does it show?
I lose the track that loses me
So here I go
And so I sent some men to fight, and one came back at dead of night
Said he'd seen my enemy, said he looked just like me
So I set out to cut myself
And here I go
I'm not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again
And maybe someday we will meet, and maybe talk, and not just speak
Don't buy the promises, 'cause there are no promises I keep
And my reflection troubles me
So here I go
I'm not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake
I'm not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again
And I saw the world turning in my sheets, and once again, I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street, look at the stars
Oh, look at the stars fall down
And wonder, where did I go wrong?
