I stare at the headlights 'til I get my head right And the dogs stop their howls on the porch My head is an ocean and I'm getting homesick For a place I've never known And I just keep laughing when I'm stuck in traffic At the metaphor I've become Maybe I'm restless, a manic, depressive Or maybe I need someone N.. Or maybe not So please just give me something for the pain 'Cause my heart softens to your name And when you're gone I come undone And when you're gone how come I'm weak And I walk wires and I pull teeth And I'm so tired of chasing dreams I need someone to wake me up I need someone to wake me up Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh I remember the evening you showed me Cat Stevens Now I fill the room up with "Father and Son" Two minutes emotion, for I was frozen By the fear and the boredom Now I've run out of reasons to pick up your pieces I just tried to recall what once was Maybe I'm desperate, a manic, depressive Or maybe I need someone Or maybe not So please just give me something for the pain 'Cause my heart softens to your name And when you're gone I come undone And when you're gone how come I'm weak And I walk wires and I pull teeth And I'm so tired of chasing dreams I need someone to wake me up I need someone to wake me up Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh And I want you Oh my god, I want you To see me here this day And I want you Fill your sleep and haunt you To see the mess you've made You've made And I want you And all my dreams are no use When I wide awake And I want to Believe I haven't lost you It's driving me insane Insane So please just give me something for the pain 'Cause my heart softens to your name And when you're gone I come undone And when you're gone how come I'm weak And I walk wires and I pull teeth And I'm so tired of chasing dreams I need someone to wake me up I need someone to wake me up Oooh, oooh
