Sleeping In

packing up the pictures in an old shoebox
it's so silent I can almost hear you walk,
down the hall, standing in front of that window,
and if heaven is so high, then why are you so low,
does it feel as if you're taking back the love that made it real?

in the darkness you will always see his face and I could never take
the place of him today I'm sleeping in

woke up it's too late and I should be in school,
there's always something wrong when you ignore the rules
never want to see myself in front of that window,
sucking up your tears didn't want let me know too much,
reaching out your hand for one last touch,

take me with you,
everybody here is fake,
and I don't wanna feel the same when you give in,
in a lifetime time, time will always take our place,
and I will lay here shielded from the pain,

ahh ahh ahh ahhh

this is a long time felt today,
you gave me all that I could take and gave me strengh to carry on
in the darkness you will always see his face
and I don't wanna be there when you do give in
in a lifetime time, time will always take our place,
and I will lay here shielded from the pain

ahh ahh ahh ahh

I do whatever I want you never let me down
i always felt when lost, somehow you're found, although life
has all these consequences now, and that's okay and that's okay
