Sleeping In Late

I wish that I could see ahead
To places no one knows
I gain the strength to write my thoughts down
I take the pencil, words escape me
I tried to find the pieces left
From when you chose to go
I want to follow you to darkness
But still I'm scared you'll just erase me
I don't want to be alone with
Anyone else but you
You keep me trapped in constant panic
Your ember visage keeps me going

Spun out and jaded, we're fading away
Shifting and drifting, we're sleepless today
Two kids in a maze with nowhere to go
But we know through it all, we can never go home

The streets are empty, your town is silent
The streetlights flickered out
I'd seen your face a thousand times
Or had I seen a thousand of you?
You said my words are noise and violence
The screaming drowns you out
I can't dispel this awkward silence
Is it too hard to say I love you?
I don't wanna be alone with
Anyone else but you
To watch you dreaming next to me
For that alone I'll keep on going

Spun out and jaded, we're fading away
Shifting and drifting and sleeping in late
Two kids in a maze with nowhere to go
But I know through it all, you will always be home
