Wake Up Alone (Live From Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London, 2007)

It's okay in the day, I'm staying busy
Tied up enough so I don't have to wonder where is he
Got so sick of crying, so just lately
When I catch myself, I do a 180

I stay up, clean the house, at least I'm not drinking
Run around just so I don't have to think about thinking
That silent sense of content that everyone gets
Just disappears soon as the sun sets

This face in my dreams, seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in his soul, he swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him, moon spilling in
And I wake up alone

As far as my heart, I'd rather be restless
The second I stop, the sleep catches up, and I'm breathless
This ache in my chest, as my day is done now
The dark covers me and I cannot run now

My blood running cold, I stand before him
It's all I can do to assure him
When he comes to me, I drip for him tonight
Drowning in me, we bathe under blue light

His face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in his soul, he swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him, moon spilling in
But I wake up alone

Yeah, I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone

Uhm, hello, baby!
How you feelin'? You alright?
Cool, cool, cool, shut up, Amy, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, this, this next one's about, uhm, when you're in a-
When you're in a-, when you're in a relationship, uhm, and you, uhm
You know that, you know, you know, it can't really work out, but

And even though, um, even though you know you're gonna be
Even though you know you're gonna be upset when it finishes
You know you'll get over it
And it's just something you have to-
Something, something you've gotta do
