[Verse 1] It's gonna get harder from here We've gotta get smarter to make it out alive 'cause you say stop and we say go Don't wanna be your tenth caller on the radio So don't bother cutting me off short tonight We let our words speak for themselves Don't take it all so far Don't make it that much harder Than it already is for you to stand alone For you [x3] [Chorus] To wake up knowing you've got the day To take on without feeling okay To make yourself unwilling to sleep away (Sleep away the pain) Don't take off running without my say Don't pay that price you thought you'd pay You've got the choice, you've got the time of day Just don't sleep away the pain [Verse 2] Hold on tight to the things you're given The camera caught it all Aren't we all forgiven now? 'cause you say stop and we say go The world outside is calling on the telephone They need answers so we'll let them know tonight We let our words speak for themselves But maybe I'm not right We're so damaged by the sunlight Can we make it through together 'cause honey, I don't like this kind of weather When I'm with you [Chorus] [Bridge] It's gonna get harder from here We've gotta get smarter To get this all in line 'cause you say stop and we say go, oh [Chorus] Just don't sleep away the pain [Outro: Instrumental]
