wake me up if I sleep too long
'cause I might be dead
judging from last night
the heart that's broken inside
I might not be
recovering
no recovery
so just give me a shiver
if you could be so kind
I'm just asking you to deliver
one of your chills up & down my spine
now this girls coming & I might stumble
then I might find myself in a little trouble
but I know I will hold my own
yes I know I am going home
walk right through the house
and lock all my doors
shutting myself off from your fucking world
but I know I'm losing track
I'll find my way back to you
don't wake me up
'cause I'm already dead
I know that it's quiet
and I don't even like it when it's quiet
'cause I know that I won't get excited
so I, just go, find a corner
just wishing that I had some more
but you know I can't do it myself,
I'm gonna need you or somebody's help
c'mon, just give me a hand
help me through this dying land
don't wake me up
'cause I'm already dead
