Sometimes i lie awake, wondering if i'll make it out of here,
but the wind blows round my heels, so i stay
i remember lying there, wishing i could be someone else
trying to find somehow to get away.
If i asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly,
'cos the dust has weighed my wings down, and i'm too tired to try.
Sometimes i sit here hearing voices in my head
i try to understand, to make some sense.
I wonder if i had to, would i lie to save myself?
a plea of guilty, but self defence.
If i asked him nicely d'you think he'd show me how?
i'm sure he's out there listening, but he's too tied up right now to try
Try, all of my sins
'cos i can't stop now,
just don't leave me behind.
Sometimes i lie awake, wondering if i'll get out of here,
but the words stick in my throat and i stay.
i remember lying there, wishing i could be someone else,
trying to find somehow to get away
If i asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly,
'cos the dust has weighed my wings down, and i'm too tired to try.
