Lyrics
BoardGame
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm half asleep again, Don't wanna wake up.
I think it's subconscious, I just sleep through my problems.
All of my dreams yeah well they're always good,
And nightmares don't scare me as much as they should,
As much as they should.
Some say there's a remedy, But my head just will not let me go!
All of these people, won't go away
They're there when I am sleeping,
And when I'm awake.
Something is wrong, Nothing is right.
So that's what I say, every night.
I'm living in this bubble world.
And underneath a safety net
So that way whenever I fall
I'll never hurt my head.
Take me for granted these words that I write.
Take me for granted these words that I write.
The words that I write, to you.
Some say there's medicine, But my head just will not let me go!
All of these people, won't go away
They're there when I am sleeping,
And when I'm awake.
Something is wrong, Nothing is right.
So that's what I say, every night.
Board games and jigsaws and father's who cry.
Funerals and weddings and kids asking why.
Analyze, lying eyes, thoughts in my head.
Go to sleep, You wake me up,
And we do it all again.
