We Sleep for We Are Old
Hey, what was your name?
I take the pills in the morning rain
I’ll never wake again
So why, why do you cry?
While the evenings are cold and dry
And your heart is a pain?
I’ll bleed for a while for a heartache, a smile
So you would sleep close to me
The edge of the earth, a symphony for you and me
But what if I wake up and find that you’re gone?
I would die in the night
Where the lights are no longer bright
And my brain is asleep
I won’t hide, you were there when I criеd
With my lopsided walk aside
I’ll be gonе for a while
So would you be kind, stop playing with my mind
And please grow old with me?
A smile in your sleep, and talk is cheap
For what I see, I’ll go for a while and I’ll come back for you
You never see
The worth that you are to me
And now we will sleep
I’m coming down, I’ll walk in your frown
If only you’d let me go
But my words are all wrong, and the lovers are gone
So why would they talk to the liar, the liar?!
I’ll never be fine, so let us unwind
And shout all our words in the corner, the corner!
The radio’s gone, your mother was wrong
You treated me like a disorder, disorder!
So why should I breathe when there’s nothing to see
When I burned all my hopes in the fire
She’ll never come back, I’m losing track
I’m turning into a liar, a liar!
A perfect excuse, unhealthy abuse
I’ve thrown my love all away, away!
I messed with her heart, I’ve torn her apart
I won’t be back today!
