Sleeping In

Packing up the pictures in an old shoe box

It's so silent I can almost hear you walk

Down the hall, standing in front of that window

And if heaven is so high , then why are you so low?

Does it feel that you're taking back the love that made it real?

In the darkness you will always see his face

And I could never take the place of him

Today I'm sleeping in

Woke up its too late and I should be in school

There's always something wrong when you ignore the rules

Never want to see myself in front of that window

Sucking up your tears

Didn't want let me know too much

Reaching out your hand for one last touch

Take me with you; everybody here is fake

And I don't wanna feel the same when you give in

In a lifetime, time will always take our place

And I will lay here shielded from the pain

Ahh ahh ahh ahhh

This is a long time from today

You gave me all that I could take

You gave me strength to carry on

In the darkness you will always see his face

And I don't wanna be their when you do give in

In a lifetime, time will always take our place

And I will lay here shielded from the pain

Ahh ahh ahh ahh

I do whatever I want

You never let me down

I always felt when lost

Somehow you're found

Although life has all these consequences now

And that's okay

And that's okay
