 2x
I've  been sleeping in for days,
 'Cause when I  am awake,
 I will have to face my  life.
 And I'm hoping it's a phase.
 The walls that I  create
 Can only make it seem alright.
 And I get carried away  like I'm the only one
 Who's ever felt the way  that I do,
 But I can hear You say,  "You're not the only one.
 Everybody hopes  to get through."
 And it's got  me sleeping in.
 Every day God, it's the same thing.
 Yeah, You  caught me sleeping  in.
 I'm still hiding; I'm still waiting.
 I need You here  with me to face  the world outside
 'Cause I'm tired  of sleeping  in.
 (Repeat chords in 1st verse)
 I've been waking up with fear,
 'Cause all that I can hear
 Is the ringing of alarms downtown.
 It's been going on for years,
 But You have made it clear
 That I am not alone in this crowd.
 And I get carried away  like I'm the only one
 Who's ever felt the way  that I do,
 But I can hear You say,  "You're not the only one.
 Everybody hopes  to get through."
 And it's got  me sleeping in.
 Every day God, it's the same thing.
 Yeah, You  caught me sleeping  in.
 I'm still hiding; I'm still waiting.
 I need You here  with me to face  the world outside
 'Cause I'm tired  of sleeping  in.
Open up  my eyes.
 I'm tired  of sleeping  in
 In a world  that's dying  to wake up.
 And it's got  me sleeping in.
 Yeah, it’s got  me sleeping in.
 And it's got  me sleeping in.
 Every day God, it's the same thing.
 Yeah, You  caught me sleeping  in.
 I'm still hiding; I'm still waiting.
 I need You here  with me to face  the world outside
 'Cause I'm tired  of sleeping  in.
 'Cause I'm tired  of sleeping  in.
 Yeah, I'm done  with sleeping in.
