Brain on a Table
i know you wanted clouds for company
but you got me, you got me.
and i could give you grief about the divide
that i face every night, it's every night.
but i know, i know, i know
or i learn pretty quickly
that's just the way things go,
the way things go.
but i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
i know you wanted someone else for company
but you've got me, you've got me.
and you could give me grief about the divide
that is oceans wide, it's oceans wide.
but i know, i know, i know
well i learn pretty quickly
that's just the way things go you said,
the way things go you said.
and i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
and my brain
nearly lead down my chest
when they opened yours up.
and my heart
nearly jumped out of my head
when they said that yours might stop,
yours might stop, yours might stop, yours might stop.
yours might stop, yours might stop, yours might stop.
please don't stop, please don't stop.
please don't stop, please don't stop.
but i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
please wake up,
please wake up.
but you got me, you got me.
and i could give you grief about the divide
that i face every night, it's every night.
but i know, i know, i know
or i learn pretty quickly
that's just the way things go,
the way things go.
but i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
i know you wanted someone else for company
but you've got me, you've got me.
and you could give me grief about the divide
that is oceans wide, it's oceans wide.
but i know, i know, i know
well i learn pretty quickly
that's just the way things go you said,
the way things go you said.
and i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
and my brain
nearly lead down my chest
when they opened yours up.
and my heart
nearly jumped out of my head
when they said that yours might stop,
yours might stop, yours might stop, yours might stop.
yours might stop, yours might stop, yours might stop.
please don't stop, please don't stop.
please don't stop, please don't stop.
but i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
i'm not asking for all that much,
just please wake up.
please wake up.
please wake up,
please wake up.
