Rise & Shine

Rise and shine
Baby out of my way
Today is mine for the taking
And I've been fading away
I let it fester
Just hanging around
Waiting on the next red letter
Gone strike me down

Such a proud individual
Cause nothing seems to stick these days
I've been, pacing grey, through the, vacant space
Got me fit to be tied with not a moment to waste
Walking lucid through the rain lame with a limp and a grin on my face
The time is now to begin
Without a doubt or a flinch
And I've been talking to myself at night
But I'll be, fine
She told me baby rise and shine
Don't you know there ain't nothing like the first time
And I can tell where you've been by the look in your eyes
And these two broke souls
No they don't make a whole no matter how hard you try
As I begin to fold
Save your praise I won't be swayed by your words anymore

Rise and shine
Baby out of my way
Today is mine for the taking
And I've been fading away
I let it fester
Just hanging around
Waiting on the next red letter
Gone strike me down

Such a proud individual
So won't you go and hit me with that smooth talk that you talk, so
Slick and soft out the loose jaw, the moods gone
It's last call before the long haul and so far not what you wanted at all
I'm withdrawn and fawning all in the raw
Over sidewalk thoughts, that I thought, that I'd lost, at all cost
I saw the jigsaw puzzle written in sidewalk chalk
Can't find the cure or the cause, so instead
We carry on as it gnaws through these four blank walls
That wouldn't even if they could talk
It's, not what you wanted at all
Got me fit to be tied
She told me baby there ain't nothing like the first time

Rise and shine
Baby out of my way
Today is mine for the taking
And I've been fading away
I let it fester
Just hanging around
Waiting on the next red letter
Gone strike me down

Music playing the the background
As I fade to blackout
And I hear the countdown
Music playing in the background
As I fade to blackout
You know, I hear the countdown

Rise and shine
Baby out of my way
Today is mine for the taking
And I've been fading away
I let it fester
Just hanging around
Waiting on the next red letter
Gone strike me down
