Glue - Early Morning Silence lyrics

[Intro] Don't close your eyes D-Don't dream, stay awake [Verse 1] My paradise is gone, and you got thirty seconds to wake up From a nightmare with a flooding rush With memories like this one Caressing your inventive side I find pride is my enemy most of the time I'm Obsessed with finding answers, guided by voices Cause the choices I've made have been cancerous Suppose this was you, tell me how would you live Energy all spent, with nothing left to give Except a rib and your blessing to be free Doesn't sound much like a fair trade to me Obviously it was finding the better of both worlds No matter how much it hurts, we both deserve The company we keep to let us get good sleep I'm not weak right now, but it's not worth it to eat It was never part of the plan to end up like this And I'm not trying to die for the things I can't admit [Hook] (Needs Work) [Verse 2] This morning I woke up, and the ceiling was spinning And my eyes couldn't adjust, the sun was beginning To pry open the shades and burn through cotton skies I reached over to hold you but you were cold as night Now, the room was hot but your body felt different I tried to wake you up, but your head never lifted I was whispering into your ear "please don't leave" She was sleeping in God's arms where I couldn't reach Her face was against my chest, the silence was singing The song of innocence, feeling like children again The moment was stuck and I couldn't breathe I screamed for someone to help us up here... please Nobody was here, just me and my love Wrapped up in the blankets that meant so much Touching her skin against mine, life slipped away God stole my heart, but left my body here to stay [Verse 3] Went to sleep early, You have to be at school by 8 Got out my flashlight to write and not keep her awake I stay up too late, I'm always tired in the morning And while she kisses me goodbye I'm always half asleep and yawning It's not that I'm lazy; I've just got things to do I'm not trying to say my art is more important than you And my epiphanies are k**ing me, I'm keeping it quiet And I love to see angels pain on the inside of her eyelids And we're locked at the legs, if I move she'll wake up So I stay in this position till my whole body's numb And when the room is still, I write to the rhythm of her pulse But it's always perfect speed so my thoughts are never rushed And sometimes you roll over and try to mumble goodnight And I laugh because your hair is always sticking up to the right Brush it away from your face because your smile's on Whisper goodnight my love and turn my flashlight off [Hook]
