Sleeper

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 ashamed of me

I look at what you've done for me

I didn't listen to what I heard

The voices swirling around me unscrewing me

You know I let u down

And that im on my own

And I have noone left to help me and keep me hangin on

Hangin on

Witherin' away all the time just waiting

For a sign to convince me I ever had a life

Sat here on the corner of the steps for too long,

I realized that I let my life pass before my eyes

I'd never let you know

You ever let me go

Im left to fend for myself and keep my mind straight

So I can move on

I know u let me down

Im used to strugglin'

You should know that you'll always have me, you'll never be alone.

You're not alone."

(screams by john)

WHY CANT YOU LISTEN TO ME!

Morgan: You walk away I'm..

Witherin' away all the time just waiting

For a sign to convince me I ever had a life

Sat here on the corner of the steps for too long,

I realized that I let my life pass before my eyes

Sittin here lookin at the time just waiting

For a sign to convince me you ever had a life

Sat here on the corner of the steps for too long,

You realized that u let your life pass before your eyes

Hangin on

Give me an answer

Its been so long

Now that we're alone

Convince me otherwise

That we ever had a life

So I can believe

That time is on our side

Now we're turnin around lookin at the time, just waiting

For a sign to convince us we ever had a life

Sat here on the corner of the steps for too long,

We realized that we let our lives pass before our eyes

Witherin away all the time just waiting

Now we're turnin around lookin at the time, just waiting

Sat here on the corner of the steps too long (too long)

And we let our lives pass before our eyes
