[Verse 1]

         
Don't try to wake me up
                                           
Even if the sun really does come out tomorrow

Don't believe anything you say
   
Anymore, in the morn, in the morning

Bricks to this old house are breaking

Steel would have weathered but now forlorning
                                 
It's alarming how loud the silence screams

No warn, no warn, no warning
                                                 
Addictions fill the table where the family used to sit
                                  
And conversate, Conversate to the sounds

To the sounds of a record player
                                                           
With it's jumping needle and the lights that grow dim over time

[Chorus]

            
With downcast eyes
                                   
There's more to living than being alive
            
With downcast eyes
                                    
There's more to living than being alive

[Verse 2]

 
Are you where you thought you'd be
 
So beautiful and only twenty-three
 
Opposition rests in the hearts
     
With no, with no, with no opportunity
 
It's not that we don't talk
  
It's just no one really listens and honesty fades
 
Like a politician lost in the course
                                    
All smiles and no one remembers our names


(Chorus) x2


    
Don't try to wake me up
                                         
Even if the sun really does come out tomorrow

Don't believe anything I say
    
Anymore, in the morn, in the morning


(Chorus) x2
