lyrics
Just once I'd like
To greet the sunrise
Without the burden of these
Awkward goodbyes
Though I speak no lies
Some things I hide
In the dark of the night
To get on their good side
So there's no surprise
When I see regret
Show in their eyes
And I wish we'd never met
I'm drowning in a sea
One that lacks any creativity
And I could escape
But I want the life that I saw on TV
Though at first you'd deny
I've no need to pry
Your actions imply
That you're lonely inside
So when I fill you up
In more ways than one
Do you hope that finally
Your searching is done?
She's drowning in a sea
One that lacks any creativity
She could escape
But she's satisfied by mediocrity
And somewhere someone sleeps
Dreaming their dreams
Thinking that we are worthy of envy
Cause when they wake
It's next to no one
They want to make
What we once called love
But have since given up
To greet the sunrise
Without the burden of these
Awkward goodbyes
Though I speak no lies
Some things I hide
In the dark of the night
To get on their good side
So there's no surprise
When I see regret
Show in their eyes
And I wish we'd never met
I'm drowning in a sea
One that lacks any creativity
And I could escape
But I want the life that I saw on TV
Though at first you'd deny
I've no need to pry
Your actions imply
That you're lonely inside
So when I fill you up
In more ways than one
Do you hope that finally
Your searching is done?
She's drowning in a sea
One that lacks any creativity
She could escape
But she's satisfied by mediocrity
And somewhere someone sleeps
Dreaming their dreams
Thinking that we are worthy of envy
Cause when they wake
It's next to no one
They want to make
What we once called love
But have since given up
