Ive woken up
I was telling my name to a stranger
Later someone will say
Ive woken up
I was was singing this tune to the homeless
Born with nothing to say
My God
Is there anyone out there anymore anyway
My God
Do you think I'm anything to anyone at all?

Why

My eyes
If no one sees it coming and I die
If only for a minute I will try
I can't believe its right before my eyes
How many do I have to pick just to survive
I guess I'll know when I'm there
Why do we always pick a side?

Johnny oh, feel it in the back of yourself
You sound like everybody knows its
"I know you know I know you"
Someone jumped up from their seat screaming
HEY
Pick me pick me joining your team
I know you know I know you
In the back of your skull
Someone sits and they wait and they pull

There's something I love about hiding from the truth
It must be secretive
There's something I love about running away from you
It must be you
There's something that I just can't let go
Time flew right out my window
Tell me your heart
Pain from the start
Did time fly right through your window?
Last time was I mess you see
I do
But this time you won't mess with me
Last time was a mess, I bleed
But I bleed for no one but me
Is it a sin to just quiet down?
Shh be quiet
And leave without making a sound
Is it a sin to just walk around
Where nobody knows me?
Tell me your heart
Pain from the start
Time flew right out my window
Its getting hot here
They're throwing fire

This monkey on my back is causing trouble
There's something suicidal that's watching me
There's something horrifying so watch with me
There's something I don't want to see but I can't look away
The devil on my shoulder's saying go for it
The angel on my right is saying no more shit
There's something I don't want to see but I can't look away
So high
The monkey can't climb this far
Do you need a reason?
There's something on my screen that I don't need to see
There's something on my mind that don't need to be there
Just tell me why
This monkey on my back it knows how to climb trees
This monkey on my back it knows where to find me
Just tell me why

Relax and let your mind go
I'd like to find a sense of peace before I go
Nothing to say
No one to pray
No one's around
I am all alone
Sacrifice some time to let your voice be heard
Turn those incommunicable grunts to words
Set some time aside to just be you
The sky remains a certain silver shade of blue
We are much like any other animal
We die just the same
But we live
Amongst each other
And I'm satisfied
I'm satisfied
We live
Amongst each other
I will survive and I will live again
