What We Do

(I stayed up to late...
We haven't even met,
And I already miss you,
Moving on, I forget how this goes...)
I met you years ago, I pretended not to know,
Silent you for so long,
You stopped by late at night,
We lay in bed and write,
Floating in the same song
So close...Let go.
Ooo no...Let's grow.
But this ain't new, its what we do,
When we're hiding from the truth,
Close our eyes, sleep, change our minds,
Yea, cause that's what humans do.
This ain't new, its what we do,
When we're hiding from the truth,
Close our eyes, sleep change our minds,
Yea, cause that's what humans do.
You've got just what I need
You're the vision- what I see
Pretty colors don't fade.
When I fall to my knees
You bring me to my feet
All the things we don't say
So close...let go.
Oooh no...let's grow.
But this ain't new- It's what we do.
When we're hiding from the truth,
Close our eyes- sleep- change our minds,
Yeah, cause that's what humans do.
This ain't new- It's what we do.
When we're hiding from the truth,
Close our eyes- sleep- change our minds,
Yeah, cause that's what humans do.
I met you years ago, I pretended not to know,
Silent you for so long,
You stopped by late at night,
We'd lay in bed and write,
Floating in the same song
So close...
But this ain't new- It's what we do.
When we're hiding from the truth, (So close...)
Close our eyes- sleep- change our minds,
Yeah, cause that's what humans do. (So close...)
This ain't new- It's what we do.
When we're hiding from the truth, (So close...)
Close our eyes- sleep- change our minds,
Yeah, cause that's what humans do. (So close...)
(Except the end was gross...)

Sleep

The sun's gonna shine, and you're gonna stray,
Everything's back to its normal place,
I'm drinking wine, and you think I'm weak,
The mistakes that are mine, I do repeat,
The world's gonna turn, and you never speak,
Soaked in regret, consumed with defeat,
We'll never learn, and you've hit your peak,
Stuck with expectations that you'll never meet.
Sleep, now...
When you wake, it'll all be over,
Don't look down, just stay high,
And see how, waking up is like starting over,
Stand you're ground; you'll get by.
You can hide in slumber, and let the night, pull you under...
Surrender to your eyelids, and forget about, what you did...
You can hide in slumber, and let the night, pull you under...
Surrender to your eyelids, and forget about, what you did...
Well now the sun's gone, and your mind goes numb,
Think to yourself, what have I done?
Television on, and much to your dismay,
The movie you deemed perfect, just won't play,
The curtains are closed, and you feel confined,
Make like the blinds, and close your eyes,
Feels like everyone knows, about your recent lies,
Luckily for you I've got an escape in mind...
Sleep, now...
When you wake it'll all be over,
Don't look down, just stay high,
And see how, waking up is like starting over,
Stand you're ground; you'll get by.
You can hide in slumber, and let the night, pull you under...
Surrender to your eyelids, and forget about, what you did...
You can hide in slumber, and let the night, pull you under...
Surrender to your eyelids, and forget about, what you did...
So sleep, oooh sleep...
You can hide in slumber, and let the night, pull you under...
Surrender to your eyelids, and forget about, what you did...
Woah, sleep,
Just sleep, and breathe,
Forget about the night, and let the trouble,
LEAVE!
Oh,
Sleep, now; when you wake it'll all be over,
Don't look down, just stay high,
And see how, waking up is like starting over,
Stand you're ground; you'll get by.
Oh I said,
Sleep, now; when you wake it'll all be over,
Don't look down, just stay high,
And see how, waking up is like starting over,
Stand you're ground; you'll get by.
So sleep, oh sleep.

Drip, drippin' down, slip slippin' out,
I don't know how, we got this way,
Trip, trippin' out, rip, ripped it out,
I don't know how, it got this way,
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing,
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing,
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing,
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing,
How can I get down, from way too high,
I fell from here but, I'll meet you in the sky...
How can I get down, from where I've climbed,
I fell from here but, I'll meet you in the sky...
Beat, beating loud, knees on the ground,
Just tell me how, we got this way,
Keep, keep me out, sleep, sleeping now,
I don't know how, it got this way,
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing, (Lalalala)
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing, (Lalalala)
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing, (Lalalala)
Lalalalala, I don't wanna hear a thing, (Lalalala)
How can I get down, from way too high,
I fell from here but, I'll meet you in the sky...
How can I get down, from where I've climbed,
I fell from here but, I'll meet you in the sky...
Meet you in the sky...
Meet you in the sky...
I'm way too high...
Meet you in the sky...
I'm way too high...
I'm way too, I'm way too high...
How can I get down, from way too high,
I fell from here but, I'll meet you in the sky...
How can I get down, from where I've climbed,
I fell from here but, I'll meet you in the sky...

Falling DOWN

I'm so stuck on, a stupid swing,
Back and forth, my mind is torn,
Climb so high, get right to the top, oh,
Yea that's right just, so I can jump off...
Some of us are prone, to falling down.
Some of us are prone, to falling down.
I've been on this train of thought, for too long,
Too scared, to choose the wrong stop,
I stay in my head, and I don't get off, I,
Climb to the top, just to jump off.
Some of us are prone, to falling down.
Some of us are prone, to falling down.
Its all one big fight, just one big flight, of stairs,
Unfair, so pissed off and scared,
Pulling out my hair, I'll always care...
I'm falling down, taking steps for the first time,
Down, how did it get this way,
I'm falling down, down,
I'm falling down, ooo.
Try to turn the key but, the day won't start,
Sinking sheets, and hiding art,
You stay in your bed and, you won't get up, you,
Climb to the top, just to jump off,
Some of us are prone (are prone),
to falling down. (Falling DOWN, Falling DOWN.)
Some of us are prone (are prone),
to falling down. (Falling DOWN, Falling DOWN.)
Patience left you hanging, and you just can't cope,
Tie a knot, hang on to that rope,
Argue with yourself for days, voice won't stop, you,
Climb to the top, just to jump off,
Some of us are prone (are prone),
to falling down. (Falling DOWN, Falling DOWN.)
Some of us are prone (are prone),
to falling down. (Falling DOWN, Falling DOWN.)
Its all one big fight, just one big flight, of stairs,
Unfair, so pissed off and scared,
Pulling out my hair, I'll always care...
I'm falling down, taking steps for the first time,
Down, how did it get this way,
I'm falling down, down,
I'm falling down, ooo.
I'm falling DOWN!
I'm falling DOWN!
(To those who haven't met me yet,
I thought The Wait would be longer,
Yet here we are... here we are...)
