I'm awake in the afternoon
I fell asleep in the living room
And it's one of those moments
When everything is so clear
Before the truth comes back into hiding
I want to decide 'cause it's worth deciding
To work on finding something more than this fear
It takes so much out of me to pretend
Tell me now, tell me how to make amends
Maybe, I need to see the daylight
To leave behind this half-life
Don't you see I'm breaking down
Lately, something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life
Is there really no escape?
No escape from time
Of any kind
I keep trying to understand
This thing and that thing, my fellow man
I guess I'll let you know
When I figure it out
But I don't mind a few mysteries
They can stay that way it's fine by me
But you are another mystery I am missing
It takes to much out of me to pretend
Maybe, I need to see the daylight
To leave behind this half-life
Don't you see I'm breaking down
Lately, something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life
Is there really no escape?
No escape from time
Of any kind
Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love
Again
'Cause lately something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life
Without you I am breaking down
Wake me, I want to see the daylight
Save me from this half-life
Let's you and I escape
Escape from time
Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love
Again
I fell asleep in the living room
And it's one of those moments
When everything is so clear
Before the truth comes back into hiding
I want to decide 'cause it's worth deciding
To work on finding something more than this fear
It takes so much out of me to pretend
Tell me now, tell me how to make amends
Maybe, I need to see the daylight
To leave behind this half-life
Don't you see I'm breaking down
Lately, something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life
Is there really no escape?
No escape from time
Of any kind
I keep trying to understand
This thing and that thing, my fellow man
I guess I'll let you know
When I figure it out
But I don't mind a few mysteries
They can stay that way it's fine by me
But you are another mystery I am missing
It takes to much out of me to pretend

To leave behind this half-life

Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love

'Cause lately something here don't feel right

Wake me, I want to see the daylight
Save me from this half-life
Let's you and I escape
Escape from time
Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love
Come on let's fall in love
