I'm awake in the afternoon
I fell asleep in the living room
It's one of those moments
When everything is so clear.
Before the truth goes back into hiding
I wanna decide 'cause it's worth deciding
To work on finding something more than this fear.

Tell me now, tell me how to make amends.

Leave behind this half-life
Don't you see I'm breaking down.

Oh 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 too much out of me to pretend.

Come on lets fall in love, again...
'Cause lately something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life,
Without you I am breaking down.
Oh, wake me, let me see the daylight
Save me from this half-life
Let's you and I escape,
Escape from time...
Come on lets fall in love,
Come on lets fall in love,
Come on lets fall in love, again...
EH, THAT'S ALL FOLKS!
