  • When I woke up I could see
    The daylight had already passed me
    It was such a fight to fade away asleep
    It's a fugue
    Come on
    Found the chase down the dawn
    And I fell every night as it turns
    Into light with my eyes just shut tight

    Sailing all alone
    I thought I'd made it home
    But I threw it all away
    Oh, where I've been sold and spun again
    I'll be falling like a dream
    Falling in between
    I feel sick, I feel nervous
    I know just what I did to deserve this
    Though I know it's not a dream

    Keeping quiet
    Laying low
    Holding on to what I don't want to know
    'Till the daylight turns to ash and blows away
    Missing keys
    Bloody nose
    Consequences of what I chose
    Keep your eyes on me
    Don't want my memory

    Sailing all alone
    I thought I'd made it home
    But I threw it all away
    Oh, where I've been sold and spun again
    I'll be falling like a dream
    Falling in between
    I feel sick, I feel nervous
    I know just what I did to deserve this
    Though I know it's not a dream

    Oh, where I've been sold and spun again

    Oh, where I've been sold and spun again
    I'll be falling like a dream
    Falling in between
    I feel sick, I feel nervous
    I know just what I did to deserve this
    Though I know it's not a dream

    Oh, where I've been sold and spun again
    I'll be falling like a dream
    Falling in between
    I feel sick, I feel nervous
    I know just what I did to deserve this
    Though I know it's not a dream. Writer/s: DANIEL BLAINE GRADY, DANIEL DIXON, DAVID COOK
