Lyrics

Last call, he was sick of it all
 Asleep at home
 Told you off and goodbye
 Well, you know one day it'll come to haunt you
 That you didn't tell him quite the truth
 You're a crisis, you're an icicle
 You're a tongue-less talker, you don't care what you say
 You're a jaywalker and you just, just walk away
 And that's all you do
 The clap of the fading out sound of your shoes
 Made him wonder who he thought that he knew
 Last call, he was sick of it all
 The endless stream of reminders
 Made him so sick of you, sick of you, sick of you
 Sick of your sound, sick of you coming around
 Trying to crawl under my skin
 When I already shed my best defense
 It comes out all around that you won
 And I think I'm all done, you can switch me off safely
 While I'm lying here waiting for sleep to overtake me
 ♪
 Yeah, yeah
 You're still here but just check to make sure
 All you aspired to do was endure
 You can't ask for more, ask for more
 Knowing you'll never get that which you ask for
 So you cast your shadow everywhere like the man in the moon
 And you start to drink, you just want to continue
 It'll all be yesteryear soon
 You start to drink, you just want to continue
 It'll all be yesteryear soon
 ♪
 Church bells and now I'm awake
 And I guess it must be some kind of holiday
 I can't seem to join in the celebration
 But I'll go to the service and I'll go to pray
 And I'll sing the praises of my maker's name
 Like I was as good as she made me
 And I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me
 I'm lying here waiting for sleep to overtake me
