Don't Wait Up
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.
Waiting on the phone to ring and wake us us again
Lost inside a dream with halls that never seem to end
Falling from the ceiling, I keep crawling on the floor
Can't avoid the feeling this has happened all before
I stumble out of my home
I'm looking out every now and then
If I'm leaving my home
I don't know when I'll be back again
So don’t you wait up for me, I'm leaving with the light
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
Trying to pull ahead, I'm always chasing time
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
I've got a restless mind
Waiting for the phone to ring and shake me up again
Pull me out from underneath the state that I've been in
Searching for a reason, I've been looking for the door
Nothings gonna keep me here just waiting
Anymore
I stumble out of my home
I'm looking out every now and then
If I'm leaving my home
I don't know when I'll be back again
So don’t you wait up for me, I'm leaving with the light
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
Trying to pull ahead, I'm always chasing time
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
I've got a restless mind
So don't you wait up for me, I'm leaving with the light
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
Trying to pull ahead, I'm always chasing time
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
Don't you wait up for me, I'm leaving with the light
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
Trying to pull ahead, I'm always chasing time
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
Don't you wait up for me, I'm leaving with the light
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
Trying to pull ahead, I'm always chasing time
Don’t wait up for me, I've got a restless mind
I've got a restless mind
I've got a restless mind
